Core Tip	Ovarian cancer death rates increase with increasing distance to practicing gynecologic oncologists in the United States. Lower ovarian cancer mortality is significantly associated with geographic proximity to gynecologic oncologists. A more even geographic distribution of gynecologic oncologists may help in decreasing some barriers to appropriate, guidelines-based ovarian cancer care, which could result in reduced ovarian cancer deaths in the United States.
