Efforts by Federal Government to Improve Care for Cancer Patients
Posted on May 25, 2010
Cancer is the leading cause of death in the United States. It is also one of the leading causes for a person to seek disability benefits. The Federal Government will now invest $145 million into nanotechnology with the hopes of improving care for cancer patients.
The government hopes to improve the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancer. This disease can be debilitating and lead to individuals being unable to work for a long period of time, resulting in financial difficulties. Many cancer patients seek disability benefits through long-term disability or Social Security disability.
This new program called the National Cancer Institute Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer was first launched in 2004. Despite the advances that have been made in cancer care, it is still the leading cause of death not only in the United States but around the world.
Some of the areas they will target include:
- Clinical trials;
- Earlier diagnosis of the disease;
- Treatments that are highly targeted to kill the cancerous cells but leave the healthy cells alone;
- Less side effects; and
- Improved chances of survival.
The diagnosis of cancer can devastate a family. If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer or any other severe physical condition, you may qualify for disability benefits. Contact a disability attorney who can help you determine eligibility.
