The US has the highest healthcare prices in the world, and an insurance system that has increasingly pushed costs onto patients in the last decade.

We would like to hear about how this is affecting people in the US. Have you experienced medical debt? When did this begin and is it an issue you are still dealing with? How has it affected you? Were you able to get help?

By submitting your responses, you are agreeing to share your details with us for this callout and are confirming that you have the agreement of any other named individual to share their details with us.
