Urge Congress to pass the bipartisan Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act of 2005 (S 910/HR1849) by clicking on the web site below. This bill would ban the practice of "drive-through" mastectomies when women are forced to leave the hospital just hours after surgery.
The Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act would require insurance companies to cover a minimum 48-hour hospital stay for patients undergoing a mastectomy.
Lifetime Television has put this bill on their web page with a petition drive to show your support. http://www.lifetimetv.com/health/breast_mastectomy_pledge.html |
