Act Now! - Urge Congress to Co-Sponsor Access to Cancer Clinical Trials Legislation
Sen. Sherrod Brown and Rep. Steve Israel have introduced legislation that would prevent health care plans – both state-based and ERISA-based – from denying patients enrolled in clinical trials services that would have been covered under their plan had they participated in what is considered standard therapy. This would remove a major barrier toward patient enrollment in clinical trials. Please, take a moment to contact your elected officials and ask them to co-sponsor S. 488 or H.R. 716.
