2021 Care Rationing Survey

2021 Care Rationing Survey - #NoBodyIsDispoable Fat Legal Advocacy, Rights, & Education Project - Have you struggled with or delayed getting medical care during the pandemic? Are you a provider concerned about care rationing at your organization? Please take this survey.

The #NoBodyIsDisposable Coalition and the Fat Legal Advocacy, Rights, & Education Project have created a short survey to hear from people who are being denied medical care because of limited medical resources. Responses will be used to help advocate for fair medical treatment.

This survey was created to help gather the stories of folks who are having trouble getting medical care during COVID. Stories will be shared to create awareness and support advocacy. (Respondents can choose whether or not to share anonymously.)

Who should take the survey?

Please take the survey if you or someone you know had a hard time getting medical treatment during COVID due to limited medical personnel and supplies/equipment shortages and you suspect part or all of the reason you did not receive necessary care was based on discrimination including but not limited to your weight, disability, race, age, or other factors.

Take the survey if you have been delaying necessary medical care because you worry if you do get COVID that you will be deprioritized for life-saving medical treatment based on your weight, disability, race, age, or other factors.

Take the survey if you work at a health care organization and have concerns about the care rationing policy, or how it is implemented.
