Virtual Policy Forum: The Cost of Cancer in Indiana

Tuesday, September 29, 2020 - 11:00am

More than 35,000 Hoosiers 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. Join ACS CAN for a virtual, wide-ranging discussion about the public policies that affect the cost of, access to and delivery of cancer treatment.  

Panelists: 

  • Rep. Cindy Kirchhofer, Indiana House of Representatives 
  • Denise Heaney, PhD, Roche Diagnostics
  • Clara Lambert, TailorMed
  • Nir Menachemi, PhD, MPH, IU Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health 
  • Ahad Sadiq, MD, Fort Wayne Medical Oncology & Hemotology 
  • Erin Smith, Anthem Inc.

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?
