Brain Tumor Policy Agenda for 2009: Join Us in Fight for Better Brain Tumor Treatments

April 15, 2009

The North American Brain Tumor Coalition will dedicate its activities during May 2009, Brain Tumor Awareness Month, to Congressional action on the Brain Tumor Policy Agenda for 2009.

The time for action is now to improve brain tumor treatments and given those who are diagnosed with brain tumors a chance of a longer and better life. NABTC proposes concrete policy actions to ensure that brain tumor patients suffer no hurdle in receiving Medicare benefits as well as a range of actions that will intensify and reinvigorate the federal brain tumor research effort.

The Brain Tumor Policy Agenda for 2009 is outlined in brief in the attached document. 2009-brain-tumor-policy-agenda
