A Study of Economic Circumstances, Service Utilization, and Service Needs Among Older Colon Cancer Patients

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the social and financial impact of colon
cancer for older patients. We want to know how cancer has affected the patient financially
and socially, and to know if the patient has resource needs that have gone unmet. By doing
this study, we hope to learn about resources that can reduce the financial burden from
cancer.
