GRACE is excited to bring to our Spanish speaking community - Cancer Basics

With the plethora of Medicare options available, here is an overview of Medicare terms and options along with things to consider when choosing a Medicare plan.

Let's start with the basics:  there are four main parts of Medicare:

• Medicare Part A – Hospital Plan
• Medicare Part B – Medical Plan
• Medicare Part C – Medicare Advantage
• Medicare Part D – Prescription Plan

What are Patient Reported Outcomes and why are they important to patients?

We couldn't do what we do without you, our volunteers! 

From sharing their own philanthropic efforts, helping at the ASCO booth, admin and transcription work, to spreading pamphlets and information about GRACE, to writing informational articles for our community, we have been lucky to have some of the most amazing people volunteer their time and efforts to GRACE.

This month we are pleased to give a huge thank you to Ketki Patel!

I’ve been impressed by many things about GRACE and its members. Among these many things are the thirst for new information and better treatments. I also admire the openness of the members both to new ideas, and to questioning these ideas.
