Impact of care density on breast cancer treatment timelines

Francisco J. Esteva, Chief, Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology at Lenox Hill Hospital shared a post on LinkedIn:

“While the uniqueness of a surgeon, or their ‘linchpin score,’ is not linked to surgical delays, higher care density correlates with reduced delays. This means patients benefit from a more familiar and coordinated care team.

Understanding these dynamics can help healthcare providers improve breast cancer treatment timelines.
