The Finazzo Patient Transportation Assistance Fund was established by Linda & Joe Finazzo to assist Karmanos cancer patients who require transportation assistance for their oncology clinic visits at Karmanos. Transportation to and from health care appointments is a basic but necessary part of the health care process, but many individuals do not have access to reliable transport in the form of a personal vehicle or cannot afford a taxi or Uber. Funding is limited to those in need. Without access to transportation, delays in care may lead to a lack of appropriate treatment and unmet cancer care needs, which in turn could impair overall health. Our clinical team works with our patients assessing how we can assist them with transportation by providing gas cards, taxis or an Uber. Overcoming transportation barriers is essential in improving health care for patients with cancer.
