GenesisCare filed for bankruptcy on 01 June
I was diagnosed last month with early BC and live in Sydney. I was offered radiation at a public hospital (free treatment, with a waitlist) or immediate access to a private GenesisCare facility.
Now I've learnt that GenesisCare filed for bankruptcy on 01 June and has had financial problems for at least a year. I was a bit uneasy with the cost and upfront payment anyway with GenesisCare so have decided to go on the public hospital waitlist.
It's incredibly demoralising and discouraging to have to consider a private provider's stability when making decisions in the throes of a surprise cancer diagnosis. Ugh.
