Has your health insurance let you down when you needed it the most? Do you have ideas on how to improve insurance offerings? Tell us about it.

We Want to Hear from You

Insurance is failing people. Your experience matters.

Whether you're a client who lost access because your therapist had to leave insurance, a provider drowning in paperwork and denials, or someone who’s watched a loved one get hurt by a system that’s supposed to help, you are not alone.

We’re collecting real stories from real people to show lawmakers, media, and the public exactly what’s happening behind the scenes. Your story can help change the narrative and the policy.

Who can share?

  • Clients who’ve had to stop therapy because of cost, denied claims, or losing a provider

  • Therapists who’ve left insurance networks, or are barely hanging on

  • Family members, advocates, front-desk staff, students, and anyone else impacted by this system

  • Someone unable to find a provider due to high insurance costs, lack of funds, or lack of providers available

What will we do with these stories?

  • Compile them into powerful testimony for lawmakers

  • Use them in media, advocacy, and educational materials if given permission

  • Uplift your experience as proof that this crisis is real, and fixable

Ready to help? Do you have a story about troubles with insurance or an idea for how to make the system better? Share it with us.
