Rick Ross, Chuck D, Busta Rhymes, Method Man, Fat Joe, and French Montana have teamed up for a new public service announcement demanding that lawmakers pass healthcare transparency bills that are working their way through Capitol Hill.

The rappers teamed with the non-profit organization Power to the Patients for the new PSA to advocate “for stronger and more meaningful price transparency laws” in order to force hospitals and insurance companies to post actual prices for their services and procedures.

“Today, we confront a health care system that has been rigged against all of us,” the rappers say in the PSA. “Hospitals force patients to sign contracts for services without ever showing us actual prices, stifling competition, overcharging without accountability, and if we can’t pay, these same contracts allow them to take everything we own.”

The system as it stands now creates “so much fear that millions and millions of Americans refuse to enter a hospital, putting our health and our lives at stake. This is an American humanitarian crisis. We love our nurses, and we need our doctors, but hospitals and insurers rigging a system to make profits off of people that are in struggle is unforgivable,” they added. “We demand prices and transparency in healthcare.”

Earlier this month, lawmakers in the House introduced a bipartisan bill — Lower Costs, More Transparency Act — that, if passed, would succeed in giving patients improved healthcare affordability. The bill would also include provisions from the PATIENT Act, which was introduced in May with the goal of having hospitals publicize their pricing, the Hill reported.

Above the fray.
Good that they're using their visibility to raise awareness.

Can't get over the vid cap, with Fat Joe using brown magic marker today for his beard.


Today's beard is not yesterday's beard.

This is good. This is a great move. Happy to see bi-partisan support

A lot of the medical industrial complex bullshyt is upheld by keeping a veil over the patients eyes

To lower prices you need to remove the excessive government regulations that prevent affordable options

Also this is not a health care industry. It is a sick care business designed to make customers for big pharma. Doctors in a box that prescribe the “medicine” that pharmaceutical companies are purveyors of. Elements of human biology are rarely acknowledged or adhered to
