2024 LLS Advocacy Priorities for PA and DE
Our mission at LLS is to cure blood cancer, but it’s also to improve Patients’ quality of life. LLS – through the office of Public Policy – works to ensure our nation’s laws and rules help patients navigate and afford cancer care in the face of pressing medical need.
For 2024, the PA & DE Advocacy Committee has prioritized the following:
Financial Burdens
- Reduce out of pocket prescription costs
- Address the direct cost of care by increasing the quality of
insurance coverages, including Medicare, Medicaid, and private
insurance programs
- Eliminate “Junk” insurance plans
Barriers to Care:
- Reduce pre-authorization treatment delays
- Improve access to Rx insurance coverage
- Improve access to clinical trials to include more diversity
among patients
- Insure interstate Medicaid Cooperation (DE/PA children)
Long-Term Impact of Blood Cancer:
- Reduce mental health stresses and worries of long-term treatment & survivorship
- Reduce stress on caretakers and family
- Improve access to trauma therapy resources
- Address long term economic impact of blood cancers
