Introduction
Improving patients’ experience of their treatment and care is an important issue for the GLCC and its members. There is, however, little data comparing patient experience between countries.
For the last four years, therefore, the Global Lung Cancer Coalition (GLCC) has run an annual global patient experience survey, gathering a wealth of useful data and insights on experiences of diagnosis, treatment, and care. We at the GLCC want to understand patients’ experiences of lung cancer and the barriers and challenges they face to inform our global and national campaigning priorities, and we conduct this survey yearly to ensure our ongoing activities and advocacy is reflective of current patient experiences, needs and preferences.
This report sets out the global findings from our fourth annual global survey, which ran from 22 February 2023 to 6 March 2023 and received 712 responses from patients across 14 countries.
We are grateful to all the patients who took the time to share their experiences via the survey. We hope the findings will be useful to policymakers in their planning, as well as to campaigners advocating for lung cancer patients’ needs.
