Abstract

Purpose: To explore strategies related to cancer-related financial toxicity (FT) from the perspectives of cancer survivors and stakeholders in China and to evaluate their views within the context of the social ecological model (SEM).

Methods: Between March and July 2022, we conducted a descriptive qualitative study with semistructured interviews of 23 cancer survivors and 14 stakeholders. Qualitative content analysis on the basis of the SEM was used to analyze the data with NVivo 12.

Results: Guided by the SEM, we identified 12 subthemes that described how to mitigate FT. Individual-level strategies included increasing cost-related health literacy, strengthening adherence to standardized treatments, and improving resilience to cancer and financial changes. Interpersonal-level strategies included strengthening family support and social networks. Organizational-level strategies included using evidence-based treatments, effective communication of costs, and providing financial information support. Community-level strategies included improving symptom management throughout survivorship and providing psychosocial support. Policy-level strategies included optimizing health insurance policies and promoting collaboration among medical institutions.

Conclusion: Our findings provide a comprehensive understanding of strategies pertaining to FT, offering insights that could support the development of future interventions. This research suggests that interventions that encompass multiple levels-individual, interpersonal, organizational, community, and policy-rather than focusing on only one level might be the most beneficial for managing FT.
