Dear Chair Maldonado and Members of the House Labor and Commerce Subcommittee,
On behalf of the Association for Clinical Oncology (ASCO), I submit a letter regarding SB 642. ASCO thanks the Subcommittee for your efforts this legislative session to protect patients from mandatory white bagging and all brown bagging policies. However, we urge you to amend SB 642 to fully ban mandatory white bagging and all brown bagging policies from insurers. Please let me know if you have any questions about cancer care, we'd be happy to be a resource.
Best,
Nick Telesco (he/him/his)
