Until recently, thyroid cancer was one of the most rapidly increasing cancers in the United States. Disparities exist in many aspects of thyroid cancer care as a result of the multifactorial interplay of systemic, patient, and physician factors. To better understand the management of thyroid cancer in populations at risk for health disparities and subsequently implement changes that will lead to health equity for all patients with thyroid cancer, health services research with innovative approaches is necessary.
