Purpose of Resource Plan Educate healthcare decision makers, elected officials, funders and interested Kentuckians on the potential to decrease the cancer burden in Kentucky through supporting cancer prevention and early detection as defined in the Kentucky Cancer Consortium Resource Plan.

Kentucky has a Cancer Problem Kentucky has the highest rate of new cancers in the U.S. Kentucky has the highest death rate for all cancers combined in the U.S.

Cancer Burden in Kentucky * Note: Rates are very small, so any change in the number can appear significant. The difference in KY and the U.S. is not as large as it appears , U.S. Cancer Statistics Type of CancerWhere Kentucky ranks in the U.S. for rate of new cases Where Kentucky ranks in the U.S. for rate of deaths Difference between Kentucky and the U.S. death rate Lung1146% ↑ Colon1419% ↑ Breast31212% ↑ Cervical9621% ↑*

Average % of Kentuckians Diagnosed at Early vs. Late Stage Lung cancer –Almost all late stage Colon and cervical cancer –Have similar numbers, both have higher late stage Breast cancer –More early stage than late stage

U.S. Cancer Treatment Costs 2010 and Estimated Change in 2020 ** This assumes no change in incidence or survival. Estimates have been made for a 5% change in medical costs.

The Impact of Prevention Thousands of Kentuckians die each year from cancers that could have been prevented or found early through screening.

Working Together Toward a Solution Kentucky Cancer Consortium –Made up of more than 55 organizations representing healthcare, advocacy, government, non-profit entities Members work collaboratively to define the financial resources needed to prevent cancers, in order to save lives and money.
