Flint, Michigan School Board member Michael Clack speaks to the many ways Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) tests would benefit a community devastated by a water crisis. The National Minority Quality Forum Action Network is partnering with community members like Michael to advocate for Medicare and Medicaid coverage of the MCED tests that minority communities need.
“A technology like this, if it were made available to them, where they would be able to detect their type of cancer early, or earlier than they did…maybe they’d still be here with us.”
