‘A dream come true’: Nemours Children’s Hospital gets $78 million to expand cancer and blood disease research

State legislatures passed new laws on medical debt, cancer testing, insurance coverage and more. Some will kick in early in the new year.

The bill heads back to the House for approval of a Senate amendment. Hospitals are neutral on the bill after fierce opposition.

Two-thirds of the more than 400 doctors on staff at the health system’s major Delaware operations, including Christiana and Wilmington hospitals, would be covered.
