More than 70,000 Ohioans will be diagnosed with cancer in 2020 and the decisions made in the statehouse or in the White House can be just as consequential for patients as the decisions made in their doctor’s office.

  • Brendan Hurst, LISW, Ohio Health
  • Jennifer Hoque, American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network
  • Julie DiRossi-King, Ohio Association of Community Health Centers (Moderator) 

Key Discussion Points:

  • What are the biggest cost drivers of out-of-pocket costs for patients?
  • What's next for value-based cancer care? 
  • How can policymakers help reduce patient costs? 
  • How do we help patients deal with financial toxicity?
