Breast and Cervical Cancer Project (BCCP) Eligibility Expanded

New state budget provision takes effect expanding access to treatments for breast and cervical cancers.

COLUMBUS The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) is announcing a recent expansion in eligibility for the Breast and Cervical Cancer Project (BCCP) which allows BCCP to cover treatments for women diagnosed with breast and cervical cancer.

If found early, nearly all breast and cervical cancers can be treated successfully. BCCP helps eligible women receive lifesaving screenings and treatment, said Bruce Vanderhoff, MD, MBA, director of the Ohio Department of Health. With the support of the Ohio General Assembly and Governor Mike DeWine, more women now have access to treatment options for breast and cervical cancers.

Ohio now offers treatment for a woman who meets all the following conditions, in addition to those Ohioans who are already eligible by diagnosis through BCCP:

The woman is younger than 65 years of age.

The Ohio Department of Health BCCP will be the access point for these women and will assist them with applying for BCCP Medicaid for treatment coverage. Partners, including BCCP enrollment agencies, will assist with enrollment and managing new treatment clients. Eligibility will be determined through BCCP in cooperation with the Ohio Department of Medicaid.

A woman should not be denied access to life-saving treatment simply because she walked through the wrong door, said Molly Guthrie, senior director of public policy and advocacy at Susan G. Komen. Thanks to the leadership of Senator Gavarone and the Governors office, a breast cancer patients access to care will no longer be contingent on where she received her screening.

The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is proud to have worked with lawmakers through the budget process to expand eligibility to this critical program, and thanks the Ohio Department of Health for its quick action to implement this expansion, said Leo Almeida, ACS CAN government relations director.

Women interested in BCCP can call 1-844-430-BCCP for more information.

This announcement coincides with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an annual observance in the month of October, encouraging women to get screened for breast cancer.

Latest YouTube sensation: Foreclosure on influencers Woodland Hills mansion – The Real Deal

A lender has foreclosed on the massive Woodland Hills home of YouTubers Austin and Catherine McBroom.

Rumors have swirled for months that the couple, who broke through as celebrity influencers by showcasing a lavish lifestyle on their ACE Family YouTube channel, are in dire financial straits, according to Business Insider.

A October 19 foreclosure auction for the property ended with no bids, returning it to lender 5 Arch Funding Corporation.

The McBrooms currently have around 19 million subscribers to the ACE Family YouTube channel, where they regularly feature their home in videos.

They bought the 12,000-square-foot home for $10.1 million in 2019, a year after it was built. The property was designed as two separate homes and later combined.

The McBrooms were served with a notice of default issued by a debt collection company in May, giving them 90 days to pay back $8.7 million owed to their lender.

In August, a notice of trustees sale was sent, notifying them that the property would be auctioned with a starting price of $9.3 million. A buyer would have had to pay for the home with cash.

The McBrooms and their three children remain in residence at the property. 5 Arch Funding Corporation must file and win an eviction lawsuit to legally compel them to leave the property.

The McBrooms are involved in a handful of lawsuits as well. Austin McBroom was sued by media company LiveXLive for $100 million for allegedly failing to fulfill contracts related to McBrooms social media star boxing event Social Gloves: Battle of the Platforms.

A company of his, Ace Hat Collection, has also petitioned two construction firms to release mechanics liens, which are usually filed over unpaid construction work. One petition was denied.

Catherine McBroom, meanwhile, has been sued by TBL Cosmetics in regard to business dealings over McBrooms cosmetics company 1212 Gateway.

The week in audio: Sweet Bobby; King Frank and the Knights of the Eco-quest; It Was All a Dream – The Guardian

Sweet BobbyKing Frank and the Knights of the EcoquestIt Was All a Dream

Sweet Bobby, a new six-part podcast from Tortoise Media, is a gripping tale of complex online catfishery. (Theres a sentence I wouldnt have written a decade ago.) Its about Kirat Assi, a sweet-natured, outgoing young British woman. She is Sikh, with a large family and friends network, full of cousins who know aunties who know uni friends. Via Facebook, she becomes an online chum of Bobby, a cardiologist who lives in Brighton. His brother used to date her second cousin.

Im not going to give you any major spoilers, but the Bobby that Kirat is talking to, the Bobby who gradually, over months and years, seduces her into a toxic relationship, even though hes ill and lives in New York that Bobby is a catfish, someone using a false online identity. The real Bobby does exist though. Alexi Mostrous, our host, tracks him down and talks to him in episode three. Before that, we hear from Kirat, who has thousands of messages and voice notes. She shows Mostrous that the fake Bobby was chatting online with her parents, that he seemed to have friends who chatted to her too. Theres even a baby who in photos appeared to be wearing clothes that Kirat had sent as a present.

It is mad, this show, and I found myself shouting at the air on occasion, frustrated that Kirat didnt just cut all ties with this online idiot. But then Im an impatient, suspicious person. Kirat is, according to her friends, someone who always helps another person in need. Mostrous, who is excellent, talks to Dr Jane Monckton Smith, expert on coercive control. Monckton Smith defines Fake Bobbys approach as high-risk. Despite my frustration, Sweet Bobby is a show I will definitely follow until the end. Fake Bobby has pulled me in too

Catfishing is a contemporary ill as is, sadly, the eco disaster that were living through. A naturally depressing topic. But Fun Kids, the digital radio station for younger children, knows how to give a chunky meal of facts without a side plate loaded with despair. And to coincide with Cop26, it has brought together various resources under Fun Kids Climate Heroes. Theres information on the rainforest, the greenhouse effect and Greta Thunberg, plus a great school pack for teachers. Theres also a funny podcast: King Frank and the Knights of the Ecoquest. This is a 15-part eco-epic-comedy-radio-drama-poem by Martin Kiszko, narrated by Toyah Willcox, with Andrew Dunn as King Frank. Frank sends three of his knights on a quest to solve his kingdoms eco problems (its drowning in litter and its plumbing is all over the shop). This is a jolly show, ideal for primary school children.

More modern problems. TalkSport has a new three-part series about football academies, It Was All a Dream. Made by the same production company that gave us the excellent Coming in from the Cold, on the history of black footballers in the UK, IWAAD is hosted by Troy Townsend. Townsend is a leader of anti-racism campaign Kick It Out, father of the Everton player Andros Townsend, and someone who played for academies when he was young: When I was released, as a teenager, my whole world shattered, he says. He talks to various pros and ex-pros (Jamie Carragher, Les Ferdinand, Ben White, Anita Asante, Trevor Sinclair), plus coaches and parents. Some are sympathetic, others have a harder attitude.

I have a few editing niggles: Townsend talks about the 1% who make it to be a pro (the first episode is even called The 1%), but in the programme this stat comes, confusingly, straight after another speaker telling us that only 0.012% of players make it. And on other occasions, the content is a bit disorganised, with questions posed but not answered. Still, this is an in-depth, interesting programme. The next episode covers the devastation of the young players who have built their whole lives around the hope of becoming a professional footballer and who are, as Townsend was, let go.

A few changes in radio land. It was Rory Cellan-Joness last week as the BBCs technology correspondent. A sad loss: I will miss his excellent, good-humoured reporting. Craig Charles has started his afternoon show on 6 Music and its a bit happy dad/wedding DJ for me, but definitely a cheerful way to spend an afternoon. Over on Radio 5 live, Colin Murray was co-hosting the breakfast show with Rachel Burden for last week only, one of the stand-ins between the just-left Nicky Campbell (wholl be getting a 9-11am extended phone-in show) and new boy Rick Edwards, both due to start on 8 November. Murray is always a hoot, and Burden seems to be enjoying his company. Edwards is less well known to listeners, but has his own warm charm, and its good to see a younger man paired with an experienced woman. I couldnt have written that sentence a decade ago either. Back then, the only presenter combination allowed was older man with younger woman. Remember?
