If It Were Their Skin

This week - a special edition of "The Distinctive Dermatologist." A decision is being made right now that could shape the care a skin cancer patient receives. But here's the catch: It's not being made by their dermatologist. It's not even being made inside a medical facility. It's being made by someone who will: Never see the lesion. Never meet the patient. Never have to explain the risks, the recurrence, or the scarring. Never have to justify why the treatment should not be covered, reimbursed, and why it was quietly removed from the list of approved options. If it were their skin… would they still make that call?
