We took a look at the Affordable Care Act through a cancer lens in order to better understand how the law will affect the colorectal cancer community. Whether you favored or opposed enactment of the Affordable Care Act, a full understanding of the new law is essential as it will change many areas of health care. We put together a webinar that will give you an overview of what is happening when and how it will impact you. It gives an overview of upcoming implementation deadlines as well as opportunities for patients and advocates to get involved in the implementation process.
If you were not able to join us for the live webinar, you can access a video of the webinar or download the slides from the presentation.
