Tell us your health care story! IT'S ABOUT HEALTH CARE! TAKE CARE OF ALL AMERICANS! MAGA GOP & TRUMP DON'T CARE!

 

MomsRising has noticed how much you care about health care. Thank you!! Now, as we enter the fourth week of a government shutdown resulting from Trump and Republicans in Congress trying to rip health care away from millions of Americans—and drive up health care costs for everyone else—we need to hear from you. 

Specifically, we want to hear about any of your experiences with Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and/or rising health care costs. We need people (like you!) to share your experience with health care to help members of Congress understand how health policy is impacting their constituents. Tell us about your experience now! (You can even do so anonymously.)

This is important, and your voice is needed. Families are feeling the strain of rising costs—from everyday essentials like groceries and gas, to back-to-school supplies, childcare, and health care. Now, Republican leaders in Congress have pulled the rug out from under us yet again by increasing the cost of health coverage for millions.

The health care situation isn’t good. In addition to the $1 trillion in health care cuts Republican leaders in Congress made in the Big, Ugly Budget Bill signed into law this summer, now the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits are set to expire at the end of the year IF Republican leaders (who control the House, Senate, and White House) don’t take action. Millions of people across the country are starting to get notifications that their premiums are skyrocketing, and 24 million people could see their premiums go up by an average of 75%! On top of this, more than 15 million people are expected to lose health care coverage altogether due to cuts earlier this year. 

When millions of people become uninsured, it will put a strain on the entire health care system, causing health care costs to rise across the board and even forcing hundreds of hospitals, maternity wards, and nursing homes to close. Unacceptable!

Please share your health care experience with MomsRising. Your voice is critical at this moment to help educate leaders about what’s really at stake for our families.

We need people (like you!) to share your experience with health care to help members of Congress understand how health policy is impacting their constituents. Your personal stories make a huge difference in helping elected leaders and other parents understand the far reaching impact of rising health care costs, hospital closures, and reduced access to care.

Don’t forget to share your story! Your personal experience with health care programs like Medicaid and the ACA—whethere positive or negative—is so powerful in this moment. 

Thank you for speaking up and sharing your story. Together, we are a powerful voice for families across the nation. 

With gratitude,

- Felicia, Olivia, Donna, Kristin, and the whole MomsRising.org & MamásConPoder Team

I went to the EMERGENCY ROOM & encountered a MOM with 3 kids - SEVERE HEADACHES -NO INSURANCE!

Diagnosis: come back with $$$ & we'll do a CT SCAN. 

I kept track of her - by the time she raised the $$$, she was diagnosed with untreatable BRAIN CANCER that had metastisized leaving 3 KIDS to grow up without MOM. 

It's happening across our country. 

MAGA GOP have NO HEALTH PLAN! 

MASSACHUSETTS & other states were VICTIMS of STEWARD'S FOR PROFIT HEALTH CARE scheme that closed hospitals, laid off staff, failed to pay vendors, sold hospital properties, & funded a lavish life style for: Ralph de la Torre, purchased a $40 million yacht and a $15 million sport fishing boat while the company faced significant financial troubles, including being $50 million behind on rent and closing several hospitals. 

STEWARD invested heavily in EMERGENCY ROOMS because 'EMERGENCIES' don't require PRE-APPROVAL & they can do expensive & unnecessary tests. In an AUTO ACCIDENT, they exhaust your insurance coverage. 

SENATOR RICK SCOTT  CEO of Columbia/HCA, which was involved in the largest healthcare fraud case in U.S. history, resulting in a $1.7 billion settlement for fraudulent billing practices related to Medicare and Medicaid. Despite this history, Scott has been active in proposing cuts to Medicaid and has called for audits to address ongoing Medicare fraud issues.

MEDICARE ADVANTAGE: FOR PROFIT is a similar SCAM with HIGH DENIAL RATES. 

NO ONE SHOULD GO BANKRUPT DUE TO MEDICAL EXPENSES! 

EVERY OTHER INDUSTRIALIZED NATION PROVIDES UIVERSAL HEALTH CARE! THE US NEEDS TO DO THE SAME - FOR ALL AMERICANS! 

It's time to support PREVENTATIVE CARE!
