Assessing the Impact of COVID-19 on Lymphedema Patients

by Heather on March 21, 2020

It’s more important than ever to enact preventative healthcare bills like the Lymphedema Treatment Act, which enable patients to manage their condition at home and reduce the incidence of complications and lymphedema-related hospitalizations.

As we continue to stress this to Congress, we would value hearing how COVID-19 is already impacting your life and what concerns you have for how it might in the future. We hope you can take a few minutes to complete this questionnaire: What is the Impact of COVID-19 on Lymphedema Patients?

The purpose of this informal survey is to asses the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on lymphedema patients, both directly and indirectly. Information obtained here may be used by our group in communications with congressional offices to support passage of the Lymphedema Treatment Act, but will not be shared or utilized in any other way.

Thank you in advance for your input and we hope everyone is staying healthy during this difficult time!
