My Life is Worth It

Petition directed toward to medical and congressional leaders:

1. WE, THE PATIENTS, EXPECT A SEAT AT THE TABLE

Any discussion of limiting the availability of critically needed therapeutics due to cost or other considerations must include patients.

2. OUR LIVES ARE NOT MEASURED BY HOW MUCH WE COST to insurers or healthcare systems

Sometimes we may have months to live, but each moment with our families and loved ones counts.

3. WE NEED DOCTORS AS OUR PRINCIPAL ALLIES

Not as financial gatekeepers.

4. WE NEED FASTER ACCESS TO INNOVATIVE THERAPIES THAT ARE OUR LIFELINE

Cutting the regulatory time for potentially life-saving new therapeutics saves time, saves money and could save lives. We cannot wait.
