The Cancer Care Program
High-Quality Compassionate Care

Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells.  According to the National Cancer Institute, it is estimated that there will be about 1,437,180 new cancer cases diagnosed in 2008.  Anyone is at risk of developing cancer, and that risk increases as an individual ages.  Currently most cancer cases occur in adults who are middle-aged or older, with about 77% of cancer cases diagnosed in persons 55 and older.

As a result of new advancements, cancer survival rates are on an upswing.  The key to survival improvements reflect the progress in diagnosing certain cancers at an earlier stage, as well as improvements in treatments.

Committed to You

  

In an effort to bring you the best quality care, the Christian Brothers Employee Benefit Trust has joined with Principal Life Insurance Company to offer you the Cancer Care Program.  If you are a CBEBT member or an enrolled dependent that has been diagnosed with cancer, you may qualify to participate in this free program.
 
The Cancer Care Program pairs you with a dedicated registered nurse who is committed to working with cancer patients.  Your nurse will be there to offer you one-on-one care, support, and expertise as you move through diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Cancer Care nurses are specially trained, and understand fully what you and your family are going through both physically and emotionally.  They will help interpret your treatment plan, facilitate your medical benefits coverage, and answer any medical
questions you may have.  Your personalized nurse will also help you locate quality providers in your area, track your treatment plan as well as any possible side effects, and identify questions you may have for your physician.  Each nurse not only knows your disease, they also understand the daily challenges you face.

Committed to Care

The Cancer Care Program is a valuable resource offered to you and your enrolled dependents at no extra cost.  If you are eligible to participate in this program, one of our trained cancer care nurses will contact you directly.  If you have questions about the Cancer Care Program or would like to self-enroll, please call our customer service team at 1-800-807-0400.
