I don't have any questions, I just wanted to thank you for bringing life back to me.
I was so sick and now I am feeling as good as I did twenty years ago! It has been a long battle: no energy, aches and pains going from one
Dr. to the next. They told me it was anything from arthritis to depression; they had me on steroids for three years... All behind me now!
I just don't know how to thank you. I think it would be wonderful if you could just be everywhere with your caring heart. Information and the
real reason behind all of the bad, sick days that so many of us have had.
Sincerely, Jessica...@telusplanet.net

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recently found that cancer treatment costs have increased from $24.7 billion (adjusted for inflation) in 1987 to $48.1 billion in 2005. This means that the cancer costs have almost doubled in the past 18 years. Using private insurance and Medicaid to pay for cancers have also increased significantly.
The main reason for the increase in total medical costs is not from an increase in cost per case, but actually an increase in the number of cancer cases. There were also less inpatient settings as time passed. The share of total cancer costs that resulted from inpatient admissions fell from 64.4 percent in 1987 to 27 percent in 2001-2005.
Private payers of their own medical expenses went from 42% to 50% in the past 20 years. Medicare is a third of the total cancer treatment cost, increasing by only 1% in 20 years. Copayments and deductibles decreased 7%. Medicaid costs remained low and went from 1% to 3%.
