CCHF Sends Letter to Governor of California

CCHF’s President and Co-founder, Twila Brase, contacted Governor Newsom to urge him to veto Assembly Bill 2098 (AB-2098). This bill, if it becomes law, would deem sharing non-sanctioned Covid information to be “nonprofessional conduct,” allowing the California board of medical practice to revoke a doctor’s license to practice.

Right of Cancer Patients to Protect Their Medical Data

Cancer patients and their families are frequently contacted by researchers and asked for information regarding their treatment or illness. The data collected is then often complied into state registries that may be shared with the federal government or national databases. State legislators should protect the medical privacy of cancer patients and not allow their data to be shared beyond state registries without the patient's permission.

Hospital Price Transparency

Despite a federal law that mandates that hospitals display the costs of their services and treatments to patients, less than 15% of hospitals do so. This legislation provides protections to patients who are unaware of the costs (due to a failure of the hospital to comply with price transparency laws) associated with their treatment costs.
