Informing decision makers about public preferences for different modalities of cancer treatment in the Rhône–Alps region in France

BACKGROUND: Alternative options to hospital care like home care or local health centers (LHCs) are being advocated. However, no study has measured citizens' preferences (who will finance these services via taxation) for these options. OBJECTIVES: We measured (i) citizens' preferences for these services, that is, respondents stated where they would like to get the treatment; (ii) the strength of their preference.
