Copay accumulators subvert the benefits of copay assistance, especially for those with chronic illness. Communities of color and low-income patients are more likely to develop chronic conditions. We must make #AllCopaysCountCA and improve health equity in our state.

Look- I understand British people pay for healthcare through taxes but taxes are a very different thing than going into massive medical debt through predatory billing practices so that private insurance companies can make literally billions of dollars.

Meet the Coad family. Their daughter Macy battles juvenile arthritis. But a hidden copay accumulator policy left them stunned with a $2,000 bill for Macy's medicine. This "copay surprise" is unjust; it’s time to make #AllCopaysCountCA! Watch here: tinyurl.com/6bzat8j6

Big win for Californians! AB 2180 unanimously passed through the Assembly Health Committee – this is a key milestone on the journey toward better patient access and adherence to treatment and improving health equity in CA. #AllCopaysCountCA bit.ly/3w6Oufs

Insurers claim copay accumulators keep premiums low – so why does data show accumulator bans have no impact on state premiums? These schemes raise costs for patients trying to access treatment. Please support AB 2180! #AllCopaysCountCA bit.ly/3QsgXTY @AsmKateSanchez

CA lawmakers, please support AB 2180 championed by Assemblymember Akilah Weber, MD. Copay accumulators restrict access to prescription drugs for people like Marguerite living with complex, chronic illnesses. Read in San Francisco Chronicle about why we must make #AllCopaysCountCA bit.ly/4dksUVg

Our nurse just filled out a prior authorization that had 61 questions & took 59 minutes to complete For just one medication—and the patient is already on it & doing well She could have cared for 4-5 patients/families during that time. This shouldn’t be legal

Despite what insurers say, protecting the value of copay assistance has NOT increased premiums. Buffy Wicks and @AsmKateSanchez, passing AB 2180 is necessary to help patients access needed treatments and ensure #AllCopaysCountCA. See the facts here: bit.ly/44mEKdC

Eric Feigl-Ding Nicole Malliotakis I hate how Trump and the GoP made him out as a villain. His position was not political. He’s a scientist for God’s sake! A brilliant mind and stellar career trashed by people who will never accomplish what he has.

Jesus fucking Christ. We are not aborting children in the 9th month or executing them after. Unless you count school shootings. #Debate2024

Unfortunately, RFK Jr. does not seem to understand that the problem with our food system is the UBIQUITOUS EXISTENCE OF CHEAP, CALORIE-DENSE, HIGHLY PALATABLE FOOD. That's it. That's the whole problem. It has precisely nothing to do with food dye or high fructose corn syrup.

Biotech companies or CRO absolutely should hear the patient perspective when designing #clinicaltrials. However, patients need to be compensated for their time and insights. At the very least, do not charge them to attend a conference! #patientadvocacy
