    Hospital Financial Assistance Testimony Workshop 
    Medical debt is a major and growing contributor to the cycle of economic and health inequity. Racial inequities in income, wealth, and insurance coverage play a role in the prevalence and burden of medical debt. This is why Health Equity Solutions and healthcare advocates in Connecticut are advocating to improve the hospital financial assistance policies to increase accessibility to our communities that are most affected by medical debt.
