Hedge Fund Manager Helps Cancer Victim
Filed under : Charity

In BBC news, an anonymous New York hedge fund manager contacted the British cancer campaign group after hearing of the plight of Jack Rosser, 57, who could not afford a life saving cancer drug.
He was unable to persuade his Primary care trust (PCT) to fund the £3,000 a month cost of the drug which is one of a number of cancer drugs which have been at the centre of so-called postcode lotteries in which patients in one area may be denied a drug on the NHS, but would be granted treatment in another area.
