We have all had those moments where the healthcare system leaves us throwing up our hands and asking, WTH?! From outrageous medical bills and denied prescriptions to hours on the phone with insurance companies, people everywhere share the same frustrations. That is why AiArthritis launched the global #WTHellth?! campaign, a place to rant, connect, and turn stories into change.
In this episode, Co-hosts Tiffany Westrich-Robertson and Ray Patnaude introduce the campaign and explain how your everyday frustrations with healthcare access, insurance, and prescription costs can be transformed into powerful patient experience data (PED). By collecting thousands of stories, WTHellth?! helps government leaders, policymakers, and insurers see the real barriers patients face.
Whether you share your rant on social media with the hashtag #WTHellth?! or submit your story directly at www.wthellth.org, your voice matters. Together, we can turn frustration into action and make sure patients everywhere are part of the conversation about healthcare reform.
