The report "FIRST Cancer Care: Leveraging Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies for cancer care" by the World Economic Forum highlights the critical gaps in cancer care in India, including data, diagnosis, knowledge and skills, financing, patient journey, governance, and human resources. The report recommends interventions to address these gaps, including the development of an oncology data model and standards, and an implementation framework and roadmap. The report's vision is to leverage Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, such as artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and electronic health records, to improve cancer care in India. The report concludes that these technologies have the potential to significantly improve cancer care in India, but their implementation requires a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders.
