Prostate cancer affects thousands of men each year, including many of our family and friends. As a company that works so closely with healthcare organizations, this cause is important to our clients and their families as well.
HUNTINGTON, N.Y. (PRWEB) September 10, 2020
Compliancy Group is deeply entrenched in the healthcare industry, helping healthcare organizations achieve HIPAA compliance, in turn helping their patients. Prostate cancer is a terrible disease that affects so many people, as such, Compliancy Group recognizes the need to spread awareness to further help patients.
This September, Compliancy Group is proud to participate in Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. Prostate cancer is one of the most common kinds of cancer in men after skin cancer. About 1 in 9 men in the United States will get prostate cancer at some point in their lives.
In 2020 in the United States:
About 191,930 new cases of prostate cancer
About 33,330 deaths from prostate cancer
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind only lung cancer. About 1 in 41 men will die from prostate cancer. The good news is that most men can survive prostate cancer if it’s found and treated early.
