The Philadelphia Area Committee to Defend Health Care is a listed organization with the Health Care Problems Archive. By recording your story in the archive, both our group and similar groups will have access to request to use your statement.
The Health Care Problems Archive is dedicated to gathering information for the same purpose the orthopedic surgeon gathers information: to make possible diagnosis and treatment of a problem. Unlike the doctor, however, The Health Care Problems Archive does not attempt diagnosis or prescription. That's left to the reader. The Health Care Problems Archive does the first part of the surgeon's job. It collects information and assembles it for study.
You can participate in two ways. First, you can share your experiences of shortcomings with the current health care system. Your writing will be identified only by your state and your profession. No other identifying information will be displayed. Second, you can use the information collected on the site to explore how and where the existing health care system fails. Armed with that knowledge, you can more accurately determine ways to fix or rebuild the current system (remember, in a democracy we are all responsible for diagnosing and fixing systems that don't work).
