Copyright Date: July 2008

Pages: 32

Authors:Andrew Cohen and Carol Pryor, The Access Project

Description: Between September 2006 and April 2008, The Access Project worked with nearly 200 Massachusetts residents who were struggling with medical debt. We provided one-on-one coaching to help people appeal denied claims with insurers, submit bills to public programs, and negotiate affordable payment arrangements with providers. Our goals were to resolve their affordable medical bills and to identify patterns of policies and problems that created medical debt. Our findings and recommendations are contained in the report.
