Cancer control, care, and treatment isn’t inexpensive.
Think about it, chances are high you’d know someone who succumbed to some form of cancer or is a cancer survivor. Whether it be a loved one, family member, friend, co-office worker, or acquaintance, there’ll be someone in your social network who’s had the dreaded big C. That’s just one of the facts of living today, and the prevalence of cancer and how it affects people across a broad socio-economic spectrum.
In 2019, the National Integrated Cancer Control Act was signed into law. It’s a landmark piece of legislation that was designed to provide cancer patients with quality health care services, and provide their families with financial risk protection. But the unfortunate truth is that to this day, NICCA has not been fully implemented.
