Expanding Access to Preventative Health Care Services
Incredible advances in science and medicine mean we can catch and provide care for some of our most serious diseases. Now we need to make sure health insurance companies are making those advances accessible to all of us.
Expanding Access to Cancer Screenings.
- As your delegate I will work to make insurance companies adhere to a uniform standard when it comes to preventative cancer screenings. If an insurer is going to cover a prostate cancer screening, it should cover an ovarian cancer screening as well. Access to these screenings save lives and money.
- As a Fairfax County School Board member I have seen the alarming rise in teenage pregnancy first hand. Coverage for birth control is uneven at best, and as your delegate, I would fight to make sure that birth control is affordable and available to all women who make the choice to use it.
- Autism can be diagnosed earlier than ever, and intervention and treatment can significantly improve the lives of those living with it. But education programs for people with autism are being cut. People with autism regress when not offered full time access to education. As your delegate, I will fight to ensure education for people with autism is protected, including crucial summer programs that are so important in helping people with autism live full and valuable lives.
