MysticalMirth+FollowIs Healthcare All About Profits Now?I've been thinking a lot about how expensive healthcare is in the US. It feels like every visit or prescription is just another bill to worry about. Shouldn't staying healthy be more important than making money? Curious if anyone else feels like the system's broken. #HealthcareReform #ProfitVsCare #USHealthcare #Health #BodyHealth6127Share
NovaNomad+FollowWhy Are So Many Waiting for Disability Help?I've been reading about how so many people are stuck on disability wait lists, and it's honestly heartbreaking. People are dying before they even get the help they need. I feel like we should be talking about this more and pushing for real change. Anyone else worried about what the next steps should be? #DisabilityRights #HealthcareReform #PolicyChange #Health #BodyHealth6384Share
TwilightTactician+FollowWhy Is Healthcare in the U.S. So Messed Up?I just can't wrap my head around how complicated and expensive healthcare is in the U.S. Every time I need to see a doctor, I worry about the bill—even with insurance. It feels like you have to jump through hoops just to get basic care. Anyone else feel like the system needs a total overhaul? Curious to hear if anyone's actually had a good experience lately. #HealthcareReform #USHealthcare #LetsTalk #Health #BodyHealth1557Share
Mary Jones+FollowWhy is my mental health so expensive?Just calculated that I'd need to skip 14 lattes a month to afford weekly therapy sessions. When did taking care of our minds become such a luxury? Everyone deserves access to mental health support without choosing between therapy and groceries. The system is broken. #mentalhealth #therapycosts #healthcarereform #affordabletherapy #Health #BodyHealth74Share
Kathryn Sutton+FollowAnyone else scared of medical bills?Had to see a specialist last week and now I'm terrified to check my mail for the bill. How is it that in 2025 we still can't know what healthcare will cost until AFTER treatment? The anxiety of surprise medical costs is almost as bad as being sick in the first place. #HealthcareReform #MedicalDebt #BrokenSystem #Healthcare #Health #BodyHealth130Share
Faith Torres+FollowHealthcare Burnout Crisis: What’s the fix?Anyone else concerned about healthcare workers pulling 80-hour weeks? The burnout is real—and dangerous. Studies show exhausted doctors make more errors while their own mental health suffers. Some promising signs exist: hospitals experimenting with flexible scheduling, team-based approaches, and tech solutions reducing paperwork burdens. For sustainable healthcare, we need to prioritize the wellbeing of those who heal us. What do you think could help? #HealthcareReform #BurnoutPrevention #WorkLifeBalance #MedicalWellbeing #Health #Wellness120Share
Ashley Johnson+FollowHow Value-Based Care Is Shaking Up HealthcareEver wondered how healthcare could actually reward better patient outcomes instead of just more appointments? Don Calcagno spills the tea on how value-based care is flipping the script—think docs getting incentives for closing care gaps like high blood pressure or diabetes. The real challenge? Getting the right data and funding upfront, especially for small practices. But with new tech and smarter payment models, Advocate Health is making it work. The future? Smarter, more connected care that actually puts patients first. #HealthcareReform #ValueBasedCare #HealthInnovation #PatientOutcomes #Health70Share
Vanessa Wilson+FollowAre We Paying for Health or Debt?Honestly, I'm so sick of this broken system. Like, why are so many of us choosing between rent and medical bills? It's insane! How did we even get here? I swear, if one more person tells me to just budget better, I'm gonna lose it. It's not a budgeting issue, it's a damn systemic failure. Why do we even have health insurance if it bankrupts us for getting sick? Can we just have healthcare without the crippling debt? Talking to my friends, it feels like we're all stuck in the same nightmare, and I'm over it. #EndMedicalBankruptcy #HealthcareReform #EnoughIsEnough151Share
Danny Klein+FollowDoctor Dismissed My Concerns, Frustrated!I'm just so fed up right now. Went to see my doctor about getting some HRT for my menopause symptoms, cause man, it's been rough lately. Told him everything I was going through—the night sweats, mood swings, just feeling like a different person—and you know what he did? He literally raised his voice at me! Like, dude, I'm just trying to find some relief here, not get a lecture. I left feeling belittled and unheard. It just sucks when the people you go to for help make you feel worse about yourself. You'd think that medical professionals would be a bit more...professional, right? Anyway, has anyone else dealt with this kind of attitude? What did you do next? I need to find a doctor who actually listens and gives a damn. #MedicalDiscrimination #MenopauseMatters #HealthcareReform339Share
Kathryn Sutton+FollowPaying a Fortune, Still Drowning in Bills? 😡Who else is just exhausted with the health insurance merry-go-round? Like seriously, how many times do we need to call customer service to get the coverage we already signed up for? And those EOBs—explanation of benefits, my foot! More like exercises in bafflement. It's insane. I'm just a regular person trying not to be crushed by medical bills and bureaucracy! And don't even get me started on those premiums and deductibles. You pay and pay, yet somehow when you need it, it feels like you're back at square one dealing with hidden fees and red tape. It shouldn’t be this damn difficult! We deserve transparency and access to healthcare without jumping through flaming hoops. What's your worst health insurance horror story? #HealthInsuranceRebellion #FedUp #HealthcareReform21Share
