On March 26, 2024, Rural Cancer spent the day at the Minnesota Capitol, telling the story about rural cancer patients, the work of Rural Cancer, and the Rural Oncology Home at Lakewood Health System. They also discussed issues important to rural cancer providers, such as prior authorization and fertility preservation for cancer patients. Thank you, Stephanie Ohlmann, for organizing the event.
