No parent should have to take out a second mortgage or lose their home because their child is being treated for cancer.
If you went to a hospital that covered all of these expenses, you would still need to take time off from work to provide care and travel to treatments. For many families, the consequence is missed payments for cars, utilities, cellphones, and other "non-essential essentials". Others face eviction or foreclosure because they can’t keep up with rent and mortgage payments.

Cancer is one of the most expensive medical conditions to treat.
The anxiety of unpaid bills piling up, combined with caring for a child undergoing chemotherapy or radiation, takes a severe toll on parents and guardians.
Many families face major financial challenges when their child is diagnosed with cancer. The many specialists, different tests, treatments and prescription drugs can add up very quickly. Health insurance has out-of-pocket costs. The copayments, deductibles and coinsurance payments accumulate from detection to treatment and for aftercare screenings.
While there are incredible children's cancer hospitals that do not accept payment for treatment, and will house a parent during treatment, they do not cover everything (read the article here).
Often one or both parents must leave their job to be with their child during treatment. For many families, the consequence is missed payments for cars, utilities, cellphones and other "non-essential essentials". Others face eviction or foreclosure because they can’t keep up with rent and mortgage payments.
