The Need - - - - - - Worldwide demand for advanced cancer care has created a unique need for HTI's services. Since the 1970's, when the United States declared its aggressive 'War on Cancer' and CDP Services began consulting to U.S. institutions, the tremendous investment in basic science and clinical practice research, technology and facilities has propelled the U.S. model of cancer care to an unparalleled level. The results of these developments are greatly improved access to high quality cancer care for most Americans. In contrast, there remains a great need for improved cancer care in other areas of the world, particularly in developing countries where more deaths occur from cancer -- some 3.5 million in 1993 compared to about 2.5 million in industrialized nations in the same year. In the United Kingdom, long waiting lists and high mortality rates are a recognized crises for the UK Government. Given this need, there are a growing number of well-trained physicians, high quality healthcare institutions and government sectors outside of the U.S. that have a desire to provide advanced cancer care in the comprehensive services model prevalent in the U.S. However, few possess the expertise and resources needed to develop a high quality, financially viable cancer center. Partnering with HTI fills this void, reducing risk for quality providers and advancing medical care in areas where it is needed most.
