&lt;em&gt;Patient shelters must become part of urban infrastructure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Ramkishan Yadav (name changed) hails from Begusarai district in Bihar. He has been in Delhi for the past seven months to complete the treatment of his 11-year-old son, who suffers from a &amp;ldquo;treatable&amp;rdquo; form of bone cancer. The father and son live on the footpath in front of the main gate of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital. When they first arrived in the city, they had rented a room nearby. As the treatment got prolonged, they ran out of money. The room became a luxury and the family moved out into the street. The ordeal that Yadav and his son are going through, unfortunately, is not exceptional.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A visit to the road outside AIIMS late evening will indicate that hundreds of patients and bystanders have made it their home as they wait for their treatment to be over. A quick on-site survey reveals that a large number of these &amp;ldquo;temporarily homeless&amp;rdquo; people happen to be suffering from various forms of cancer. Cancer patients require long-term treatment and the public space outside the hospital offers quick access to the hospital services, more so in case of an emergency, which is not uncommon in this subset of patients. Such &amp;ldquo;cancer refugees&amp;rdquo; can be found on streets outside most big cancer centres of the country, in Delhi, Mumbai and so on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the absence of good peripheral cancer treatment centres, patients are referred to tertiary centres which are mainly located in big cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Ahmedabad. Most of these patients have a typical history. They suffer from a curable form of cancer (hence the temptation to complete treatment) and are usually from distant places. The initial few months of treatment are &amp;ldquo;good&amp;rdquo; with a place rented for stay near the hospital. Once the money runs out, which usually happens in three to four months, the patients and their families are forced to shift to the streets next to the hospital.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Poverty caused by health expenditure has doubled in India in the past 15 years. A recent study claims that out-of-pocket health expenditure in India accounts for nearly 7 per cent of household expenses. Diseases like cancer are most damaging to a family&amp;rsquo;s finances. In the absence of health and social security nets, cancers, particularly the ones that offer a chance of cure, can be financially debilitating for a family. It has been established the world over that poverty is a risk factor for cancer causation. But equally true is the fact that in countries like ours, cancer (treatment) is an important risk factor for tipping the balance, especially for families that live on the edge of absolute poverty. So not only does poverty cause cancer, cancer also causes poverty, at least in India. Cancer refugees represent the very phenomenon of &amp;ldquo;cancer poverty&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

But equally true is the fact that in countries like ours, cancer (treatment) is an important risk factor for tipping the balance, especially for families that live on the edge of absolute poverty. So not only does poverty cause cancer, cancer also causes poverty, at least in India. Cancer refugees represent the very phenomenon of &amp;ldquo;cancer poverty&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

He has been in Delhi for the past seven months to complete the treatment of his 11-year-old son, who suffers from a &amp;ldquo;treatable&amp;rdquo; form of bone cancer. The father and son live on the footpath in front of the main gate of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital. When they first arrived in the city, they had rented a room nearby. As the treatment got prolonged, they ran out of money. The room became a luxury and the family moved out into the street. The ordeal that Yadav and his son are going through, unfortunately, is not exceptional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A visit to the road outside AIIMS late evening will indicate that hundreds of patients and bystanders have made it their home as they wait for their treatment to be over. A quick on-site survey reveals that a large number of these &amp;ldquo;temporarily homeless&amp;rdquo; people happen to be suffering from various forms of cancer. Cancer patients require long-term treatment and the public space outside the hospital offers quick access to the hospital services, more so in case of an emergency, which is not uncommon in this subset of patients. Such &amp;ldquo;cancer refugees&amp;rdquo; can be found on streets outside most big cancer centres of the country, in Delhi, Mumbai and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the absence of good peripheral cancer treatment centres, patients are referred to tertiary centres which are mainly located in big cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Ahmedabad. Most of these patients have a typical history. They suffer from a curable form of cancer (hence the temptation to complete treatment) and are usually from distant places. The initial few months of treatment are &amp;ldquo;good&amp;rdquo; with a place rented for stay near the hospital. Once the money runs out, which usually happens in three to four months, the patients and their families are forced to shift to the streets next to the hospital.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poverty caused by health expenditure has doubled in India in the past 15 years. A recent study claims that out-of-pocket health expenditure in India accounts for nearly 7 per cent of household expenses. Diseases like cancer are most damaging to a family&amp;rsquo;s finances.

He has been in Delhi for the past seven months to complete the treatment of his 11-year-old son, who suffers from a &amp;ldquo;treatable&amp;rdquo; form of bone cancer. The father and son live on the footpath in front of the main gate of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital. When they first arrived in the city, they had rented a room nearby. As the treatment got prolonged, they ran out of money. The room became a luxury and the family moved out into the street. The ordeal that Yadav and his son are going through, unfortunately, is not exceptional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A visit to the road outside AIIMS late evening will indicate that hundreds of patients and bystanders have made it their home as they wait for their treatment to be over. A quick on-site survey reveals that a large number of these &amp;ldquo;temporarily homeless&amp;rdquo; people happen to be suffering from various forms of cancer. Cancer patients require long-term treatment and the public space outside the hospital offers quick access to the hospital services, more so in case of an emergency, which is not uncommon in this subset of patients. Such &amp;ldquo;cancer refugees&amp;rdquo; can be found on streets outside most big cancer centres of the country, in Delhi, Mumbai and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the absence of good peripheral cancer treatment centres, patients are referred to tertiary centres which are mainly located in big cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Ahmedabad. Most of these patients have a typical history. They suffer from a curable form of cancer (hence the temptation to complete treatment) and are usually from distant places. The initial few months of treatment are &amp;ldquo;good&amp;rdquo; with a place rented for stay near the hospital. Once the money runs out, which usually happens in three to four months, the patients and their families are forced to shift to the streets next to the hospital.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poverty caused by health expenditure has doubled in India in the past 15 years. A recent study claims that out-of-pocket health expenditure in India accounts for nearly 7 per cent of household expenses. Diseases like cancer are most damaging to a family&amp;rsquo;s finances. In the absence of health and social security nets, cancers, particularly the ones that offer a chance of cure, can be financially debilitating for a family. It has been established the world over that poverty is a risk factor for cancer causation. But equally true is the fact that in countries like ours, cancer (treatment) is an important risk factor for tipping the balance, especially for families that live on the edge of absolute poverty.

<em>Patient shelters must become part of urban infrastructure.<br />
</em><br />
Ramkishan Yadav (name changed) hails from Begusarai district in Bihar. He has been in Delhi for the past seven months to complete the treatment of his 11-year-old son, who suffers from a &ldquo;treatable&rdquo; form of bone cancer. The father and son live on the footpath in front of the main gate of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital. When they first arrived in the city, they had rented a room nearby. As the treatment got prolonged, they ran out of money. The room became a luxury and the family moved out into the street. The ordeal that Yadav and his son are going through, unfortunately, is not exceptional.<br />
<br />
A visit to the road outside AIIMS late evening will indicate that hundreds of patients and bystanders have made it their home as they wait for their treatment to be over. A quick on-site survey reveals that a large number of these &ldquo;temporarily homeless&rdquo; people happen to be suffering from various forms of cancer. Cancer patients require long-term treatment and the public space outside the hospital offers quick access to the hospital services, more so in case of an emergency, which is not uncommon in this subset of patients. Such &ldquo;cancer refugees&rdquo; can be found on streets outside most big cancer centres of the country, in Delhi, Mumbai and so on.<br />
<br />
In the absence of good peripheral cancer treatment centres, patients are referred to tertiary centres which are mainly located in big cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Ahmedabad. Most of these patients have a typical history. They suffer from a curable form of cancer (hence the temptation to complete treatment) and are usually from distant places. The initial few months of treatment are &ldquo;good&rdquo; with a place rented for stay near the hospital. Once the money runs out, which usually happens in three to four months, the patients and their families are forced to shift to the streets next to the hospital.<br />
<br />
Poverty caused by health expenditure has doubled in India in the past 15 years. A recent study claims that out-of-pocket health expenditure in India accounts for nearly 7 per cent of household expenses. Diseases like cancer are most damaging to a family&rsquo;s finances. In the absence of health and social security nets, cancers, particularly the ones that offer a chance of cure, can be financially debilitating for a family. It has been established the world over that poverty is a risk factor for cancer causation. But equally true is the fact that in countries like ours, cancer (treatment) is an important risk factor for tipping the balance, especially for families that live on the edge of absolute poverty. So not only does poverty cause cancer, cancer also causes poverty, at least in India. Cancer refugees represent the very phenomenon of &ldquo;cancer poverty&rdquo;.<br />

The Cancer Refugees -Shah Alam Khan

-The Indian Express Patient shelters must become part of urban infrastructure. Ramkishan Yadav (name changed) hails from Begusarai district in Bihar. He has been in Delhi for the past seven months to complete the treatment of his 11-year-old son, who suffers from a “treatable” form of bone cancer. The father and son live on the footpath in front of the main gate of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital. When they first arrived in the city, they had rented a room nearby. As the treatment got prolonged, they ran out of money. The room became a luxury and the family moved out into the street.
