"Medical debt is on the rise! Over the years, our health care system has begun prioritizing debt collections as much as the health of patients and communities that rely on their services. More and more, patients, communities, and even health professionals, struggle to manage outrageous medical bills and growing medical debt. But they are also beginning to fight back against #CorporateHealthCare!

The first step is understanding why medical debt is on the rise and what you can do about it!

Join NJ Communities United and our partners, HPAE & NJ Citizen Action for a training: Reducing Medical Debt & the High Cost of Medical Care.

Saturday, March 18th
12:00Noon – 1:30 PM

Presenters will highlight steps patients can take to reduce medical debt and lead a discussion on how we all can protect patients, families and our communities from falling into medical debt. As a community of nurses, healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers our priority is to protect the health and wellness of our patients, including the economic security of our community."
