Cancer : How it is affecting you & me... our Community

Consider This...
It’s hard to face the facts, but cancer will affect many of us – regardless of age, gender or lifestyle. While treatment has advanced the fight against cancer, it still occurs in 50% of men and 33% of women*. And the fight is costly.
About 65% of cancer – related expenses aren’t covered by health insurance*. Indirect costs can be twice as much as your medical bills*. Indirect expenses can include things like transportation, lodging, food, missed work, home recovery and extended care. This is why it pays to have cancer insurance.
