1) The document examines how socioeconomic status predicts access to palliative care services. 2) A study analyzed referral data from 2004-2006 to a hospice at home service covering two areas with different socioeconomic profiles. 3) The results showed that wards with higher deprivation and lower socioeconomic status had significantly lower referral rates to the hospice at home service, even when controlling for cancer mortality rates. This suggests socioeconomic inequalities influence access to specialist palliative care.
