We were happy to meet with @SenGriffo in the Capitol today to raise awareness about the bleeding disorders community and to ask him to support #S965--a bipartisan bill to protect kids with chronic conditions who need access to medically-necessary care.
We had a great meeting today with @PatriciaFahy46's office! We hope to have you join our efforts to pass #S965, Senator.
This bill would ensure children with specific diagnoses can access the medically-necessary care and providers they need.
We just finished meeting with Emma in Assemblymember González-Rojas's office.
@votejgr: Please support budget language to reform prior authorization, extend the continuity of care from 60 to 90 days, and increase transparency in denials.

Had a great meeting with @SenatorHarckham's office this afternoon!
We hope the Senator fights to protect language in the budget that would reform prior authorization, extend the continuity of care, and increase transparency in denials.

We had the pleasure of meeting with @senatorzellner this afternoon to ask him to support #S965.
If passed, this bill would ensure that children with bleeding disorders and other chronic conditions continue to have access to services that are deemed medically-necessary for them.

Bleeding disorders have caused much suffering in our time. But early detection and treatment have infused patients' stories with hope.

Charity just with Senator @MarkWalczyk in Albany.

This morning, advocates met with @SenatorRJackson's staff to thank him for cosponsoring S.965.
This bill would require state-regulated health plans to cover medically necessary care for children with certain diagnoses, even when the provider is out of network or out of state.
Advocates from across New York State are in Albany today to ask their elected officials to support policies that protect patients and ensure they continue to have access to the care they need!
Tonight, we celebrated our 2025 Rare Impact Award Community Champions, including a devoted mother who, like so many in the rare community, became not only a full-time caregiver, but also took on the roles of advocate, researcher, social worker, and nurse.
She found hope in NORD's motto: “Alone we are rare. Together we are strong.” 💙
To all our award winners — thank you for your strength, leadership, and unwavering advocacy. You make our community stronger and inspire us all.
On 4/1, the CDC’s Division of Blood Disorders underwent major cuts. Additional permanent terminations are expected soon.
