A cancer diagnosis may carry with it a variety of legal issues that can cause

people unnecessary worry, confusion and stress. In the “Cancer and the Law”

presentation we will discuss the most common cancer-related legal issues for

cancer patients and survivors, including: health insurance options; employment

rights and reasonable accommodations in the workplace; taking time off work;

and access to disability insurance and government benefits, such as Medicare,

Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Social Security Disability

Insurance (SSDI).
