Today’s hearing’s key takeaway right from the top: we need CMSGov to cover CT Colonography #VirtualCT for #colorectalcancer screening to save more lives. This cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths yet it is preventable w/ screening.

.Judy Yee reminds us that an American dies of #coloncancer every 9 minutes. By passing HR 1298, we can do something about it. Make #VirtualCT, or CT Colonography, available for all patients who want and need it.

“If you have lower socioeconomic status, things like missing work or needing a family member to take you to a #colonoscopy can be a barrier to screening. #VirtualCT can solve the problem because it’s faster and doesn’t require sedation” -@Brewington_UTSW

We surveyed patients to find out why they picked CT Colonography. They cited that it’s less invasive, didn’t require being put to sleep, and because they didn’t have to have a driver. The real cost? 19.6% of patients “would not have had the exam” if #VirtualCT weren’t available.

Incredibly powerful Moreton Lecture by Dr. Glaucomflecken at #ACR2023. A wild emotional ride for the audience between laughter and tears, as he shares his journey as both physician and patient.

Breaking: @CMSgov moves to cover CT Colonography screening of Medicare patients in the FY25 HOPPS proposed rule. We applaud this proposal as a big step toward providing Medicare patients access to a minimally invasive colorectal cancer screening tool. bit.ly/3LDmrsh
