Cancer Australia held a virtual roundtable in July 2020 which comprised thirty leading Australian cancer experts and consumers.

Input was sought on the following questions:

  • What elements of cancer care changed during the COVID-19 pandemic?
  • What is the impact of this change?
  • What targeted strategies could be identified to retain, enhance, and embed high-value changes into practice?
