Abstract

This cross-sectional study aimed to examine financial toxicity among people with skin cancer using pooled National Health Interview Survey data from adults in 2011-2018. Material, behavioral, and psychological markers of financial toxicity were compared by lifetime skin cancer history (any melanoma, any skin cancer beside melanoma, and no skin cancer) using multivariable logistic regression models. Of 257,652 total participants, 1874 (0.73%) had known melanoma and 7073 (2.75%) had any skin cancer beside melanoma. History of skin cancers was not independently associated with increased markers of financial toxicity after adjustment for sociodemographic and medical co-morbidities.
