Perceived access to general medical care among cancer survivors and people with no history of cancer, Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS), 2011. Analyses were based on the 2011 MEPS, with data drawn from both the core survey and the Experiences With Cancer Survey.25,26 Predicted probabilities were derived from multivariate logistic regression analyses adjusting for current age, education, health insurance, marital status, number of MEPS priority conditions, race/ethnicity, and sex. Estimates were weighted to account for the complex survey design of MEPS. The numbers in parentheses are the sample size of each group. Perceived access to general medical care was defined as reporting no delay or inability to obtain medical care, dental care, or prescription medicine in the previous 12 months. The 70 cancer survivors without access to necessary cancer care represent 901 470 adults with cancer in the US population. Error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals.
