那些经过手术后慢性疼痛的女性希望保险范围扩大. Women with chronic post-surgery pain seek insurance coverage expansion.

许多女性经过切除乳房后,会患上一种叫做"切割乳房之后的疼痛综合征 (PMPS) "的慢性疼痛. 这种疼痛可能持续数年. After undergoing mastectomies, many women suffer from debilitating chronic pain known as post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS), which can persist for years. 尽管PMPS影响患者的比例估计在10%至50%以上, 但医生往往不认可并忽略它, 使女性没有得到适当治疗. Despite affecting an estimated 10% to over 50% of patients, PMPS is often underrecognized and dismissed by doctors, leaving women without adequate treatment. 倡导者呼吁改善教育和研究, 而拟议的"促进妇女健康保障法",旨在通过扩大治疗后并发症保险覆盖范围来帮助女性. Advocates are calling for better education and research, and the proposed Advancing Women’s Health Coverage Act aims to help by expanding insurance coverage for post-treatment complications, though research funding faces setbacks.
