The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship and other advocacy groups join Be The Match in announcing the launch of ExploreBMT™, an easy-to-search online tool that provides direct access to information about marrow and cord blood transplantation (also known as BMT). From diagnosis through survivorship, patients and their loved ones can use ExploreBMT to browse resources and services from respected patient organizations.

ExploreBMT is the first online tool of its kind—designed specifically for patients and families connected to transplant. When searching online, patients and families can be overwhelmed by the volume of online information and may not know what is credible.

ExploreBMT combines the resources of nine patient-focused organizations, all of whom support BMT patients in some way. Patients and families can browse by topic or perform a search to find exactly the resources they need.

ExploreBMT provides information on:

• Diseases treated with transplant
• The transplant process
• Financial, insurance and legal aid
• Emotional and physical health
• One-to-one support
• Life after transplant
• Caregiving
