Health needs as a priority of local authorities in Poland based on the example of implementation of health policy cancer programmes.

Conclusions: There is a very high degree of differentiation in the involvement of particular voivodeships in fighting cancer regarding the number of implemented health programmes. There are various degrees of involvement of particular types of local government units in the implementation of programmes in the field of cancer. The repeatability of actions undertaken at the local and national level may indicate limited effectiveness of the policy to fight cancer. It is necessary to implement more programmes in the field of oncological diseases and to increase the population covered by these programmes. PMID: 30393500 [PubMed]
