Lest we forget, “preexisting condition” is actually a legal term (not a medical one) that was coined by private insurance companies to charge people more or deny coverage, and it’s only thanks to its definition in the ACA that insurers have a little harder time doing those things to people

Have you seen or created art (any form) depicting #MedicalGaslighting, other types of patient neglect and abuse, or #MedicalPTSD? Art helps people understand concepts and experiences they haven't been through, especially on an emotional level.
Post it below ⬇️, we can create a galley.
