BENCHMARKING
“A regular source of care and access to a health care system
with expertise in cancer treatment will provide the best
opportunity for maximizing patient outcomes” (Ganz, 2002)
“limited access to cancer specialists and important treatment
modalities, such as radiation therapy treatment…is the reason
why…surgery is more limited in rural area” (Ganz, 2002)
Proximity and ease of access (Celaya et. al., 2005)
“Highly aggressive and experimental therapies…Access to
care…can strongly influence the range of outcomes available to
patients” (Ganz, 2002)

RELEVANCE
To fight against cancer mortality
• Community involvement
• Comprehensive Cancer Control coalitions
o “reduce cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality through
prevention, early detection, treatment, rehabilitation, and
palliation” (Behringer, 2010)
• More information and knowledge about cancer to patients
• Health care programs in “culture-specific settings” (Mahon, 2002)

RELEVANCE
Wisconsin Statutes
1993 – Community Health Improvement Process
Department of Health Services 10 year goal
“Healthiest Wisconsin 2020: Living Healthier, Longer”
(Division of Public Health, 2015)
INTERPRETATION OF THE RELEVANCE
Healthy population = healthy economy
Comprehensive cancer control coalitions have proven effective
More hospitals in rural areas would help but cost millions

1 in 3 will develop cancer throughout their lifetime (Charette, 1994)
