Your health: Caring for cancer
Published: 9/9/2007

When cancer strikes, you might use your health
insurance more than ever before. You might also
encounter more problems getting coverage. To help pts
navigate these challenges, the advocacy group National
Coalition for Cancer Survivorship has updated its
guidebook, "What Cancer Survivors Need to Know About
Health Insurance."

The booklet describes pros & cons of different types
of insurance policies, Medicare Part D & laws that
protect cancer survivors. It also includes resources
for additional help and info. The book is available in
English & Spanish.
