Public Policy
Public Policy
is a major concern of this patient community as we move into the world of genetic alterations, privacy and insurance issues. Patients must have the assurance that their individualism is respected and that they are never denied all medical services needed for their situation. Services through careful watchdog relationships with federal, state and local governments will assure patients full access for medical services. Positive involvement will ensure our patients are given equitable service in research and medical advances and care.
