We are transforming blood cancer care by Tackling Medical Debt

Blood cancer brings not only health challenges but financial ones.
Medical debt shouldn’t add to the weight of a diagnosis.

Find options to address your medical debt

Our bold approach to resolve medical debt

At Blood Cancer United, we’re not just addressing medical debt. Through new patient programs and relentless advocacy, we've implemented a one-of-a-kind solution that helps people who have medical debt and prevents them from having to take on additional debt.

We’re dismantling the financial barriers that have long stood between patients and the care they deserve. And we need your help.

I’m on a limited budget, and the monthly payments were just killing me... Having all these medical bills while you’re going through treatment is such an added stress... I couldn’t have done this on my own.

Medical debt affects long-term health and financial stability

47%

of cancer patients incurred debt because of their care

61%

of uninsured adults say they went without healthcare because of cost

63%

of adults with medical debt cut back on food and other basic needs

Putting patients first

Putting patients first

Medical debt doesn’t just disrupt lives—it threatens futures. At Blood Cancer United, we believe no one should have to choose between lifesaving treatment and financial ruin. Blood cancer isn’t a choice, and the cost of care shouldn’t be a punishment.

We're pioneering a new model of support; one that puts patients and families first—making treatment more accessible, support more comprehensive, and outcomes more hopeful.

Our groundbreaking initiatives are setting a new standard—a system where physical and financial health go hand in hand.

Through this innovative work, we help patients address medical debt in two ways:

Providing free one-on-one, personalized support so patients can address their medical debt today through our Medical Debt Case Management program

Working toward broader, systemic reforms that will reduce the burden of medical debt for millions of patients tomorrow through advocacy work
