Seniors’ access to a screening colonoscopy is at risk and YOU can help!
We need you to call Congress and urge your Representative to support H.R. 4120!
Call 1-866-615-3375. At the prompt, enter your ZIP code and you will be directly connected to your Representative – at no cost to you.
When you reach your Representative’s office, simply say:
- Your name and where you live
- Please cosponsor H.R. 4120, the Removing Barriers to Colorectal Cancer Screening Act of 2012
- Because Medicare beneficiaries should not be subject to unexpected coinsurance payments for colonoscopy screening
H.R. 4120, the Removing Barriers to Colorectal Cancer Screening Act of 2012, will fix a regulation that requires Medicare beneficiaries to pay coinsurance when their screening colonoscopy involves the removal of a polyp. The current policy can cost patients $100 to $300 and serve as a deterrent to screening.
We need cosponsors for this legislation if it is to pass into law & YOU can help! Your call will take two minutes of your time, but could save countless lives. Please take action and urge your friends and families to do the same!
Thank you to our partners for their support and advocacy!
