Our findings highlight the mismatches between how cancer services are currently designed and delivered, and the specific needs of people experiencing health and social inequities. These findings also point to organizations delivering cancer services as potential sites for transformation toward more equitable access to cancer care. Equity-oriented healthcare may offer a framework for service design and delivery to improve access to cancer care and experiences of care
