Ms. Edwards, this is truly a life and death problem, not only for my
client but also for many other residents of the Commonwealth. Bone
marrow transplants have been proven to be very effective, especially so
in the treatment of breast cancer. There is now legislation pending,
House Bill 504, that mandates coverage for the treatment of breast
cancer. Its passage this term is questionable and, if passed, its
retro-active effect is more questionable. The intervention of the
Department of Justice is warranted and needed.
Please confirm you have received this inquiry. I have enclosed copies of
certain pertinent information for your ready review. Time is of the
essence. Any efforts to expedite would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
William C. Keeney
