Über diesen Titel

Cancer doesn’t just take a toll on the body, it can also take a serious toll on a person’s financial life. In this episode, Hajar talks with Tameka Brooks, a financial empowerment coach at Roswell Park, and Dr. Anurag Singh, a radiation oncologist and researcher, about something called financial toxicity, the stress and burden patients experience as a result of the financial impact of cancer.

They explore how insurance confusion, lost income, housing insecurity, and out-of-pocket costs can compound the challenges of treatment, why many patients feel too ashamed or uncomfortable to bring up financial concerns with their doctors, and how that stress can actually affect health outcomes and survival.
