dc.description.abstract | Hospitals have made substantial investments in advertising for cancer services in the past two decades, totalling over US$200 million in 2016 alone. Advertisements promoting cancer centres are unavoidable in the USA. They hang on highway billboards and on air during prime-time programming. Some advertisements claim superior outcomes, others highlight access to clinical trials, and many present heart-warming patient stories that might be non-representative of actual outcomes. Data suggest that patients are highly aware of advertisements and are likewise influenced by them. | en_US |
