🔬 Fun fact: Biomarker testing isn't one test—it's a category of tests that can examine tumor tissue, blood, or other samples for important cancer clues. Stay tuned for more information!

🧬 Did you know? Biomarker testing helps doctors match patients to treatments that are more likely to work specifically for their cancer...and avoid ones that won't. Learn more here: fightcancer.org/what-we-do/a…

Access to care is under threat, and we're grateful that @GovernorVA wants to protect those vulnerable to cuts. We're ready to work together to ensure every patient can prevent, detect, treat, fight, and survive cancer in the Commonwealth!
Medicare and Medicaid made a promise: no one should face illness alone. Today, that promise is under attack. Virginia is stepping up to protect access to care, support rural hospitals, and make healthcare more affordable for families. Washington may walk away. Virginia won’t. Learn more: HHR.VIRGINIA.GOV

Governor Spanberger highlighted the risks cuts pose for Virginians. New ACS CAN data shows why that matters. Most cancer survivors say they would have struggled to meet Medicaid work requirements during treatment.
61 years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid became law — extending healthcare to Virginians across the Commonwealth. But that care is under threat. The Trump Administration and Republicans in Washington made the largest cuts to Medicaid in the program’s history, putting 300,000 Virginians at risk of losing coverage. In the wake of these devastating cuts, Virginia will continue to use every tool we have to protect Virginians’ access to care.
