How Did We Get Here: The Causes and Impact of Medical Debt
Join us for a webinar on Mar 16, 2022 at 1:00 PM EDT.
Our speaker, Ruth Lande, will consider medical debt as a racial equity and community health issue. Does healthcare “consumerism” cause medical debt? Who is at fault, healthcare providers or insurers? The cost of complexity: our byzantine healthcare financing process.

RIP is a not-for-profit, national charity that locates, acquires, and abolishes medical debt for people facing financial hardship.
