Insurance companies that prioritize profits over patients endanger Californians who need critical health care services. Our families, neighbors, and communities can't wait any longer. Insurance companies must hold up their end of the health care system and put patients’ needs over their financial gains.

We want to hear how insurance companies have put your health at risk. Whether your care has been delayed or denied outright, you deserve to be heard by those with the power to make change. Please, share your story below by either writing or recording a video of yourself explaining what happened.

Upload Your Story

Please snap a video of yourself telling your story about how insurance companies have put your health at risk. When filming, please make sure you have permission from anyone else featured in the content you are submitting. For tips on how to film a video at home, please see the Filming Tips section.

Filming Tips

  • Please speak clearly and slowly.
  • Please do not have any personal/confidential materials in the background.
  • Please be aware of any loud noises in the background that may distract the viewer or make it difficult to hear.
  • When filming your video, make sure to stand somewhere that the light doesn’t obscure the face or cause a glare (do not have a bright light directly behind you, such as a window).
  • Look into the camera as you are speaking.
  • Place the camera at a comfortable angle - generally, either the camera at level with the speaker or slightly above looks best.
  • Try to have your whole face in the shot.
  • Please keep video submissions under 5 minutes.
  • Make sure videos are no larger than 100mb in size.
