Time for a cancer plan re-think, says King’s Fund
 The time is right to revisit the NHS Cancer Plan, according to a new report published by the King’s Fund.
'Future Trends and Challenges for Cancer Services in England', which was commissioned by Cancer Research UK, says policy revision is needed now in order to provide the right care for future cancer sufferers.
King’s Fund senior fellow in health policy Dr Rebecca Rosen said: “The impact of recent NHS reform is gathering pace and it is essential that future cancer policy anticipates the challenges and opportunities of people living longer, technological changes and policy shifts throughout the NHS.
“We hope that this report will provide food for thought for the future of cancer services. The health service is changing, and cancer services will need support to adapt to this.”
