Breast Cancer Patient Education Act: Plan for Life After Cancer

Breast Reconstruction Patients Urge Support of Breast Cancer Patient Education Act

Before they were treated for breast cancer, these planned for life after the disease. They chose to have breast reconstruction because they knew it was a choice, many women don’t. Tell your congressman to support the Breast Cancer Patient Education Act, which makes it illegal for women to be left in the dark about their options.

PACIENTES DE RECONSTRUCCIÓN DE MAMA PIDEN APOYO DE CÁNCER DE MAMA PACIENTE LEY DE EDUCACIÓN
Antes de que ellos fueron tratados por cáncer de mama, éstos planearon para la vida después de la enfermedad. Eligieron a una reconstrucción del seno, porque sabían que era una elección, muchas mujeres no lo hacen. Dígale a su miembro del Congreso para apoyar la Ley de Educación de Pacientes con Cáncer de Mama, que establece que es ilegal que las mujeres pueden dejar en la oscuridad acerca de sus opciones.

What is BRA Day USA?

Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day, or BRA Day, occurs annually in October and is an initiative designed to promote education, awareness and access regarding post-mastectomy breast reconstruction.
The third annual BRA Day will take place on October 15, 2014.
BRA Day USA is a collaborative effort between the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, The Plastic Surgery Foundation, plastic surgeons, breast centers, nurse navigators, corporate sponsors and breast cancer support groups.
These and other organizations, breast cancer patients, their families and friends coordinate events on BRA Day USA that include gala fundraisers, question and answer sessions, lectures, flash mobs, advertising campaigns and community events.

Breast Reconstruction

Many women eligible for breast reconstruction following cancer surgery are not being informed of their options. All women should know their options. It’s time to close the loop on breast cancer.
Studies have revealed:

Eighty-nine percent of women want to see what breast reconstruction surgery results before undergoing cancer treatment.
Less than a quarter (23 percent) of women know the wide range of breast reconstruction options available.
Only 22 percent of women are familiar with the quality of outcomes that can be expected.
Only 19 percent of women understand that the timing of their treatment for breast cancer and the timing of their decision to undergo reconstruction greatly impacts their options and results.
