Health Dialog Makes Decision Aid for Breast Cancer Available to Public

In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a report from Market Watch indicates that Health Dialog is making its decision aid available to the general public. Breast cancer could lead to months off from work and qualify you to receive long-term disability benefits.

Health Dialog's decision aid, "Early Stage Breast Cancer: Choosing Your Surgery," is being made available for the second year in a row. It provides a wealth of information, resources, and tools about potential treatment options for those who have breast cancer.

In easy-to-understand language, it helps patients learn things such as how to read a pathology report or what is involved in the different types of breast cancer surgeries. It also provides information through the use of pictures, diagrams, and videos, providing a comprehensive way for patients to learn more about the options that are available.

According to the American Cancer Society, in 2011 it is expected that 230,480 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed. Knowing what to expect, which treatment plans are out there and other valuable information can make a significant difference.

If you have been diagnosed with breast cancer, you should speak with a Georgia long-term disability lawyer to learn if you qualify for disability benefits.

Long-term disability benefits may be available to those who have purchased a disability plan from a private insurer or have coverage through an employer. Unfortunately, the insurers don't make it easy for the disabled to get access to the benefits they deserve.

When a severe medical condition makes it impossible for you to work and you've been denied your long-term disability benefits, an attorney from LaVan & Neidenberg, P.A. can help you cut through the red tape and fight for your benefits, no matter where you live in the U.S!
