1. Susan Cerezo Susan Cerezo United States says:

    President Clinton and his staff should be commended for implementing the Breast and Cervical Cancer Care and Treatment Program in 2000.  I am positive that they did not intend to discriminate men in the breast cancer issue, as there have been breast cancer in men prior to 2000.  I believe it was an oversight.  They could have specified women and men to have coverage for breast cancer and women for cervical cancer.  I read that there have been cases of men with breast cancer who have been denied coverage in the past.  This situation should have been rectified right away.  That law was not written in stone, it had been expanded already.  We cannot just accept this inadvertence.  Let us all call upon our elected officials for a amendment. Surely, there is no justice for men afflicted with breast cancer in this predicament.
