Gap Thumb for Infographic

The Affordable Care Act & Cancer Survivorship (INFOGRAPHIC)

January 28, 2015/in Cancer News, Cancer Policy Blog Access to Care, Affordable Care Act, Care Coordination, Clinical Trials, Payment Reform, Quality Cancer Care, Survivorship Care NCCS News /by actualize

The first principle of the Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care states, “People with cancer have the right to a system of universal health care. This access should not be precluded because of preexisting conditions, genetic or other risk factors, or employment status.” The Affordable Care Act has impacted these issues more than any other legislation passed in the 20 years since the Imperatives were published. Check out this infographic for a look at the Affordable Care Act and cancer survivorship at a glance, as well as gaps that remain in meeting the needs of cancer survivors and patients.
