PSA Screening for HIM Act (H.R. 5200)

The PSA Screening for HIM Act (H.R. 5200) fills a data gap that handcuffs the law from ensuring men at high risk for prostate cancer can get screened with no cost sharing requirements. We have mortality data that shows African Americans and men with a family history are at greater risk for death from prostate cancer, but we don't have a data set that shows screening prevents those deaths. Kind of backwards. To urge your Congressional representative to cosponsor the bill, use this link: https://lnkd.in/egFT2Fy
