(a) It is declared and found that one of the most serious and tragic problems facing the public health and welfare is the death of thousands of persons in this state every year from cancer, although the present state of medical arts and technology could return many of these persons to a socially productive life. Advances and discoveries in the treatment of patients suffering from cancer now allow not mere survival, but rehabilitation of these patients to their normal occupations and activities. Presently, many of these patients are dying for lack of personal financial resources to pay for the care which they need.

(b) The state recognizes its responsibilities to allow its citizens to keep their health without being pauperized and to use its resources and organization to aid in gathering and disseminating information on the treatment of cancer.
