Let's Get Better, Together.
Use the buttons below to send a personalized letter
to your state Representatives,
your state Medicaid, and Medicare.
With your help, and the help of our community,
we can improve healthcare
and health outcomes
for everyone who self-caths.
It's time to speak up!
As a Medicare or Medicaid beneficiary,
you should be able to:
CHOOSE YOUR BRAND
Did your doctor or supplier give you a catheter with a cancer warning label?
AVOID DEHP
Ongoing exposure to DEHP, a Prop 65 phthalate, may hurt your health.
ACCESS BETTER STYLES
Cath users must endure multiple UTIs before better styles are covered.
The World Health Organization's 2022 global report on health equity for persons with disabilities shows that because of the systemic and persistent health inequities, many disabled people face the risk of dying much earlier—even up to 20 years earlier—than non-disabled people.
Send Your Letter
It's quick and easy to do!
We've created a simple petition that will help you ask State Representatives, Medicare, and Medicaid to make sure you or your loved ones have better catheters.
These organizations determine the guidelines of what is reimbursed for urological catheters.
