Getting diagnosed with cancer isn’t just a health shock—it’s a financial one, too. New research shows privately insured folks under 65 see their out-of-pocket costs spike by almost $600 a month after a cancer diagnosis, and it only gets pricier as the disease progresses. Even early-stage cancer means hundreds more per month, while advanced cases can top $700 extra. It’s a brutal reminder that insurance doesn’t always mean affordable care, and why policy changes are so needed. #Health #BodyHealth #CancerCosts
