The cost-effectiveness of a nurse-led care program for breast cancer patients undergoing outpatient-based chemotherapy - A feasibility trial

Cancer patients make unscheduled health service visits when receiving outpatient-based chemotherapy, which leads to increased health service costs. The nurse-led care reduces emergency departments visits made by breast cancer patients undergoing six-cycle adjuvant chemotherapy. For breast cancer patients undergoing four-cycle chemotherapy and six-cycle chemotherapy, the nurse-led care could be cost-effective.
