SUMMARY:Life Support: Educational Panel Discussion on Scalp Cooling in the Metastatic Setting and the Importance of Access
DESCRIPTION:Insurance coverage for scalp cooling is not standard in the United States\, therefore many patients\, especially those in the underrepresented communities\, do not have access. This discussion will talk about scalp cooling in the metastatic setting and discuss the efficacy of scalp cooling for Black patients. And then we will talk about the importance of access for all patients regardless of race or socioeconomic background. \nclick HERE to learn more and register to attend in-person \nclick HERE to join the webinar virtually on Thursday morning (no pre-registration required)
