Healthcare keeps getting more expensive. Premiums are rising. Deductibles are growing. Prescriptions, appointments, procedures, and hospital bills are taking a bigger bite out of our budgets.
And patients are being forced to make impossible choices because of it.
Join The Patients Union on a call for patients and caregivers to come together and talk about what rising healthcare costs are actually doing to our lives.
We’ll share our experiences: What has changed for you over the past two years? What have you had to cut back on, put off, or give up to afford healthcare? What happens when the care we need costs more than we can afford?
Then we’ll zoom out. We’ll talk about why healthcare costs keep rising, who has power over the healthcare systems in our communities, and what patients can do when we organize together.
Because if you’re struggling with the cost of healthcare, you are far from alone.
The Patients Union is building a national organization of patients and caregivers who believe we should have a say in the decisions that shape our care, our communities, and our lives. Come meet other patients, learn more about what we’re building, and find a way to take action with us.
You don’t need to be an expert on healthcare. You just need to know what it’s like to be a patient.
