Advocacy

Join ASH in our relentless pursuit of change, as we actively shape policies that impact the very heart of hematology research and practice. We empower researchers, clinicians, and patients through education, equipping lawmakers, and government officials with the knowledge they need to make a difference. Together, we unite our voice to revolutionize the future of hematology for the better.

Research and Public Health Funding

ASH and other members of the biomedical research and public health communities continue to strongly urge Congress to provide increased annual funding for NIH, CDC and other federal public health agencies and programs-increased resources are needed now more than ever.

Blood Transfusion

Access to Palliative Blood Transfusions

Misconceptions about transfusions and limited funds hinder access to patients' end-of-life care. ASH prompts calls for innovative reimbursement models and increased support for palliative transfusions in hospice settings.

Sickle Cells

Sickle Cell Disease Advocacy

Since 2015, ASH has been committed to improving the outcomes for individuals living with SCD through collaborations with federal agencies, the U.S. Congress, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Maternal Health Care

High maternal mortality rates in the United States, with a particular disparity among non-Hispanic Black women, underscore the need to address hematologic complications in pregnancy. While advocating for diverse maternal perspectives and experiences, ASH stands that no woman should face legal ramifications for childbearing decisions.

We have created advocacy tools, including fact sheets, infographics, and talking points, to support discussions with legislators, serve as 鈥渓eave behind鈥 documents after meetings, and enhance written and phone communications.
