Abstract

This study conducts a comprehensive examination of socioeconomic disparities in women’s cancer screening participation over the past decade. Leveraging data from population-based surveys, health records, and screening program datasets spanning from 2010 to 2020, the research focuses on a diverse cohort of women stratified by income, education, and access to healthcare resources. The primary objectives include assessing screening participation rates, analyzing trends across various socioeconomic strata, and utilizing multivariate regression models to delineate the influence of income, education, and healthcare access on screening behavior. The study anticipates revealing nuanced patterns in disparities and aims to contribute valuable insights to the discourse on healthcare equity. The findings have implications for informing targeted interventions, shaping policy measures, and fostering inclusivity in cancer screening programs. Ultimately, this research aspires to guide the development of a more equitable healthcare landscape, ensuring that all women have equal access to crucial, life-saving cancer screening initiatives.
