In India, it is estimated and reported by the government of India and various independent cancer registries of India that cancer incidences are rapidly growing due to increasing urbanisation, rapid adoption of western lifestyle as well as rampant, atrocious addictions like tobacco in Indian population. Among those who suffer from cancer, it is estimated that 10%-15% of their families are pushed below the poverty line due to the catastrophic cost burden of cancer treatment. Cancer treatment is primarily multi-modal in nature and each of its treatment modalities like Chemotherapy, Surgery, Radiotherapy, ranging up to latest inventions of Immunotherapy incur humongous cost to patients. On many occasions, patients are left with no choice but to interrupt treatment in-between. For some of them, cancer treatment remains a forbidden fruit.
