4-2-14 chemo bill passes senate

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Chemotherapy drugs in pill form would be more affordable for cancer patients under a bill that has cleared the Wisconsin Legislature. Public pressure and addition of an amendment to cap patient copays at $100 a month led to Republican leaders acting on the bill that Gov. Scott Walker has said he will sign. Democrats say the bill has loopholes that could lead to insurance companies charging even more.
