Untitled

This article has almost no citations, and feels like a long advertisement for cancer insurance.

Planned improvements

  • History of insurance coverage for cancer treatments, especially before "cancer insurance" was a thing
  • Any debate surrounding regulations on cancer insurance, especially with regard to the passage of healthcare legislation
  • Coverage, availability, and equity
  • Cancer coverage outside of the US
  • Less bias and expansion of the "concerns" section
  • Adding citations, because there are no citations right now! (and linking to other pages)

Sources to look at

American Cancer Society's website (cancer.org) Dr. Otis Brawley's How We Do Harm

Peer Review

I think it would be helpful to explicitly define terms such as "lump-sum" for people that may not necessarily know what it is or link that Wikipedia article to it the first time it is mentioned. I think the division of the sections was especially well done and that the information was appropriate and unbiased and that the citations were correctly used.Celsisa (talk) 03:55, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
