Background:
Congress has reintroduced the Cancer Drug Parity Act (H.R. 4101), bipartisan legislation that would require insurers to cover oral anti-cancer medications with the same cost-sharing as they cover infusions. As an oncology nurse, you’ve seen patients face financial hardships or not be able to afford their treatments, and you know firsthand what happens when patients go without the appropriate treatment.
How Can YOU Help?
You have a powerful voice. Reaching out to lawmakers is a critical step in protecting vital services for patients. Please contact your members of Congress and urge them to cosponsor and advance the legislation. While this message is written from the perspective of an oncology nurse, everyone is invited to personalize this message with your own experiences.
