Critical Elements of Health Reform

The International Myeloma Foundation (IMF) is conducting a campaign called the Cancer Patient Statement of Principles, designed to assure that the essential elements of health reform will become law despite the current partisan tension.

These elements are:

  • Affordable access to basic and catastrophic health care coverage for as many Americans as possible.
  • The elimination of "pre-existing conditions" as a barrier to health care coverage.
  • The elimination of annual and lifetime caps on insurance coverage.
  • Closing of the Medicare "donut hole."
  • Continued investment in research and innovation to address the needs of those with all deadly diseases.
To show your support for these priorities, please visit the IMF advocacy page and contact your Senators and Congressperson.  And feel free to write to your friends about it.

Thank you!
