DBI on Capitol Hill, Density Request Forms
The World’s Leading Resource on Dense Breasts, Now Leads the Fight for the Find It Early Act
DBI had a full schedule on Capitol Hill last week meeting with key Congressional members. The federal bill would ensure all health insurance plans cover screening and diagnostic imaging with no out-of-pocket costs for women with dense breasts or higher risk for breast cancer. WE NEED YOU TO TAKE ACTION. Please share your perspective/examples of denials for coverage for supplemental imaging, resulting delayed screening, unexpected insurance costs, etc., with your congressperson. FYI, congressional members have made it clear that personal direct reach outs are much more effective than petitions. Please contact your congressperson and ask for them to support the bill, learn how HERE.

Women out of the U.S. have asked for a resource to request their breast density after their mammograms. DBI features 5 versions of a Patient Density Request Form for specific health systems, the newest version in Arabic.
