The survey aims to gather data on the costs that people have incurred during their care, including the direct and indirect costs, along with the costs associated with their changing financial circumstances. Cancer Council Australia will use the results of this research in their policy and advocacy work to reduce the financial impact of cancer in Australia. The study should take no more than 30 minutes to complete.
Participants will not be asked to provide any personally identifiable information. Study closes 31 January.
Take part in the survey here on Survey Monkey.
