1. Complexity of Symptoms: Some conditions present with non-specific or overlapping symptoms that make diagnosis challenging.
2. Limited Access to Healthcare: Geographic, financial, and systemic barriers can impede timely access to diagnostic services.
3. Communication Gaps: Poor communication between patients and healthcare providers, or among providers themselves, can lead to misunderstandings and missed diagnoses.
4. Resource Constraints: Inadequate staffing, limited diagnostic tools, and insufficient training can all contribute to delays.
