Story

In 2025, it is projected that 29.8 million Indians will be suffering from cancer. Owing to its chronic nature and expensive treatment, out-of-pocket expenditure is the highest for cancer. In India, insurance coverage is limited and health expenditures are not covered for 80% of the population. 

One in 10 Indians will develop cancer during their lifetime and one in 15 Indians will die of cancer, says the World Cancer Report released by the World Health Organisation which has pointed out “socioeconomic inequalities” as a major cause for the rapidly increasing burden of the disease in the country. The five most frequent cancers in India between men and women are breast, cervical, oral, lung, and colorectal. These top five account for 47.2 per cent of all cancers and they can be prevented, screened for and/or detected early 0and treated at an early stage. 60% of cancer in India are either tobacco-related or due to infection i.e. HVP, Hepatitis c etc. Over 70% of cases were reported in an advanced stage of the disease, resulting in poor survival. The only way to win the battle against cancer is through Awareness, Prevention & Early Detection. Up to 40% of all cancers can be prevented by avoiding tobacco and adopting other healthy habits. Regular screening helps detect many cancers in their early stages when they can be treated successfully.
