We advocate
for quality, affordable health care for every man, woman,
and child in Maine. To do the best job we can in advocating
for you, we need to hear from you!
We
collect stories about difficulties related to health
care or coverage. This helps us to know what the biggest
issues are that people are facing, and how we might
be able to address those issues though our advocacy,
legal, policy, or other work.
If you or someone
you know has...
- Bought
health insurance thinking you were covered, only to
find out that the service you needed was not covered;
- Not
filled a prescription, cut pills in half, skipped
a recommended test or follow-up, or had a medical
problem but did not go to the doctor because you could
not afford to;
- Had
trouble paying your medical bills or struggled to
pay off a large amount of medical debt;
- Bought
health insurance that didn't cover services for a
specific health condition because that health condition
existed before your coverage started (often called
a "preexisting condition exclusion"); or,
- Experienced
some other health care coverage related problem,
then we want to
hear from you!
