Does not surprise me. A lady I went to school with had to sue to get cancer treatment because she had medicaid. By the time she forced the state to permit the treatment, the cancer had spread and she was not doing well at all. It had been originally found in the first stage and had been very treatable. I haven't heard from her in years and I doubt she's still alive now.
Women over the age of 70, blacks or Hispanics and Medicaid patients are especially likely to be undertreated for the cancer, which is highly deadly, Dr. Barbara Goff of the University of Washington in Seattle and colleagues found.
Research shows that aggressive surgery and chemotherapy can more effectively treat ovarian cancer.
Goff's team looked at hospital records in nine states to find that women treated at non-specialist centers were also likely to be undertreated.
