#WTHELLTH?!
#WTHellth is a campaign encouraging those frustrated with various aspects of the healthcare system to share their negative ("hellish") experiences on video or through written rant. The more examples we can gather the better chance we will have to prove the need for change and impact efforts towards improvements.
The name blends the popular acronym "WTH", often used during times of frustration, with a spin on "health" to "hellth" because of the negative experiences patients face when dealing with the healthcare system (which are often described as nightmarish or hellish).

Did you know that access to healthcare and treatments is often directly linked to policies (government healthcare systems, insurance companies, etc.?) Understanding what these are, and then sharing YOUR stories (examples) to legislators that show why these policies need to change, is so important! Learn more by viewing the video library.
