Cancer Leadership Council Comments on Essential Health Benefits
On December 26, 2012 the Cancer Leadership Council, a patient-centered forum of national advocacy organizations addressing public policy issues in cancer, filed comments on Essential Health Benefits. The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship was one of 16 organizations representing cancer patients, physicians, researchers, and caregivers signing on to the comments. The comments on the proposed rule setting standards related to essential health benefits, actuarial value, and accreditation were guided by the key principles of quality cancer care.
