Lisa Lacasse: Supreme Court Ruling Protecting No-Cost Preventive Cancer Care
Lisa Lacasse, President of the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), shared a post on LinkedIn:
“In a critical ruling that helps reduce the cancer burden nationwide by ensuring affordable access to evidence-based cancer screening and preventive services, we are pleased that today the Supreme Court upheld the provision of the Affordable Care Act that requires most private insurers to cover many lifesaving preventive care services without cost sharing.
Research has shown that any out-of-pocket costs can be a deterrent to accessing proven cancer screening, which can be the difference between life and death.
Preventive care and early detection services save lives, are cost-effective, and improve patient outcomes by preventing cancer and detecting it early when it’s more treatable. We urge the Secretary of Health and Human Services to protect patients, uphold science and evidence-based policies, and continue to support coverage and access to no-cost, evidence-based, recommended preventive services.
The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) led 32 partner organizations in applauding the Court’s decision.
