Update on Caring Voice Coalition: January 13, 2017

January 13, 2017 By Dr. Jeremy Feldman

update

Caring Voice Coalition will reopen for grant applications on Monday January 16th at 9am Eastern time.  Patients who have yet to receive grant support should call and keep calling. You should also try and connect with Caring Voice by email and on their website.

We have had encouraging news from several of the drug manufacturers that they are working with the federal government to find ways to further support patients.  We remain optimistic that this problem of funding gaps will eventually be worked out.  In the meantime, work closely with your treating physicians to find short term solutions.
