Minnesota Cancer Alliance

Minnesota Cancer Alliance MCA is a coalition of organizations dedicated to reducing the burden of cancer in Minnesota.

The Minnesota Cancer Alliance is a broad partnership of organizations and leaders from across Minnesota. We represent public health and health care organizations, cancer centers, culturally diverse organizations, researchers, nonprofit organizations, cancer survivors, caregivers, and advocates — all dedicated to reducing the burden of cancer across the continuum from prevention and detection to tr

eatment, survivorship, and end-of-life care. Our vision is for Minnesota to be a place where:
- Preventable cancers do not occur.
- People who develop cancer are diagnosed in the earliest stage possible.
- People with cancer are given the highest quality, state-of-the-art care available to maximize their chances of survival and quality of life.
- Preventable disparities in the prevention of cancer, and in the quality, experience, and outcomes of care for patients with cancer, are eliminated.
- Full support is given to research about the causes of cancers, prevention, early detection, treatment, quality of life, and palliation.

❗In case you missed –

MNCM, in partnership with the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), recently released the 2024 Disparities by Insurance Type Report.

🔍 The report examines differences in health care quality outcomes between Minnesotans enrolled in Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) and those covered by other purchasers, such as commercial insurance and Medicare. It also tracks trends over time and provides a closer look at MHCP results by race and ethnicity.

Understanding where disparities exist is a critical step toward improving health outcomes for all Minnesotans.

🙏 Thank you to DHS for their continued partnership and commitment to advancing health equity through transparent, data-driven reporting!
