She is a staunch advocate for patients receiving fair radiological care, particularly in the realm of annual mammography screening beginning at age 40. Consequently, she was involved in helping pass the bill in the state of Missouri ensuring annual screening 2D and 3D mammography coverage beginning at age 40 in average risk women. She also led the effort to pass legislation in 2020 in Missouri for ensuring high risk women for breast cancer receive coverage including supplemental screening and annual mammography beginning at age 30.
