Bringing diagnosis and care closer to where patients live
Across many LMICs, the greatest barriers to care are not only treatment availability, but delayed diagnosis.
Health workforce shortages, limited primary care capacity, long distances to health facilities, and uneven access to services mean too many people remain undiagnosed until the late stages of disease. Training frontline providers helps close this gap by increasing awareness, expanding screening and referral capacity, and enabling timely diagnosis.
