Strong fears of losing assistance rights. And the greatest fear, that of losing the right to care. It is the health crisis effect feared by women with metastatic breast cancer. According to what emerges from a survey conducted by Gfk Eurisko for Europa Donna, with the unconditional contribution of Amgen, presented in Milan, the spending review and the reduction of resources allocated to health care are scary for them too.

The approval time in Italy can vary from 6 months to 2 years, depending of the region. Tell me if this is the right to treatment, which should be sacrosanct for us".<\/p>\n

the 59% for diagnostic exams, the 57% for specialist visits, the 38% for drugs for side effects, the 23% for travel reimbursements, the 12% for supplements and parapharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n
