The Governor's Office and the NC Department of Health and Human Services recently announced a groundbreaking, win-win initiative to relieve medical debt for two million North Carolinians, cap interest rates on medical debt, provide generous discounts on hospital prices to families with certain incomes, automatically enroll people into charity care, and prohibit selling debt to collectors. But this plan can only move forward if hospitals agree to participate. 

Will you take two minutes to urge the CEOs of five key hospital systems and CEO of the N.C. Healthcare Association to support this plan?  

Hospital CEOs must hear from community members statewide about how important it is for hospitals to live up to their charitable mission by agreeing to this innovative proposal, which will help protect North Carolinians and create a long-term solution to financial assistance.

Please include a personal story in your email if you have one and share this action alert with your family and friends.

As always, thank you for taking the time to fight for affordable healthcare! What you do makes a difference.
