Fight Back Against Unfair Medical Bills
Manage episode 423006602 series 3348530
100 million Americans are in serious medical debt. One of every five dollars we earn goes to the cost of healthcare. Healthcare costs are so overwhelming people can’t save, buy a house or plan for the future. Medical bills are the biggest reason for bankruptcies and hospitals are gaming the system. Power to The Patients works to stop the injustice. Hospitals have a lack of accountability on pricing. They have gotten more profit-centered than patient-centered. This downward spiral has increased in the past 10 years. Power to The Patients is an organization that helps patients fight unfair medical bills. They and Patient Rights Advocates regularly lobby lawmakers for change and pricing transparency enforcement. They believe patients have the right to know the total price for their care up front. Learn your rights and your options to stop the sea of debt and fight unfair medical bills. Tune into this eye-opening interview with Marni Carey, president of Power to the Patients on Women Road Warriors with Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro.
