🚨Cancer patients have medical debt in collections that lasts for years after diagnosis/treatment despite >95% insurance coverage. After years of analysis, we report in @JAMAOnc on debt, collections, bankruptcy, & credit scores in >74k control-matched patients over 10 years.

Despite high insurance coverage rates, individuals diagnosed with #cancer in Massachusetts experienced increases in medical debt, with those having bladder and colorectal cancer facing additional increases. ja.ma/3UKRUxb @NishantUppal7

We found that up to ~15% of cancer survivors experience catastrophic health expenditures (OOP costs > ~40% disposable income) Stark reminder that even seemingly small medical bills can cause financial damage for low-income households authors.elsevier.com/a/1jpk27tCW27G…

At #ATA2023 we showed that bankruptcy rates among patients with thyroid cancer in MA from 2010-2019 are higher than other cancer types despite declines in medical debt and high rates of health coverage. Abstract/prelim results: liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/th…
