Your Stories were part of last week’s LTA Committee Hearing!

by Heather on June 15, 2016

Last week, the Lymphedema Treatment Act took another big step forward when it was included in the “Legislation to Improve and Sustain the Medicare Program” hearing.

If you’ve watched the video clip of Rep Reichert’s testimony about the LTA, you know he featured two patient stories. What you didn’t see was that we armed Reichert with a book of over 400 lymphedema stories that we have collected over the past several years, to share with his congressional colleagues!

This book was prepared specifically for this hearing, but we will be printing others at key times as our bill progresses. It’s not too late for your story to be included in the next edition!

Our stories are powerful and they illustrate why passage of this bill is so important. Please share yours today!

For other ways you can support passage of the LTA please visit our Increasing Support page. Thank you for making a difference!
