How did the COVID-19 pandemic affect cancer patients in England who had hospital appointments cancelled?
Original language description
The paper examines appointment cancellations for English cancer patients during COVID-19. Pandemic patients waited 19 more days for rescheduled appointments than pre-pandemic. Pandemic cohort had 14% fewer outpatient, 32% fewer inpatient visits, 50% less hospitalized. No mortality difference suggests hospitals prioritized acute cases despite fewer resources. Later cancellations less disruptive, provider-initiated linked to higher survival rates.
