Abstract

Background: The term financial toxicity (FT) is used to describe financial distress or hardship as an outcome of cancer and its treatment. Financial burden can negatively affect quality of life in cancer survivors, especially emotional and physical well-being. There is a potential for FT to be alleviated in the primary care setting. However, little is known about the potential role of General Practitioners (GPs) in addressing FT in cancer patients.
