Help me get our company and our company story/mission published in a major local newspaper or TV news.

Looking for someone that can creatively and skillfully use the emotionally charged topic of Health care costs and health care Insurance access challenges to promote our business and our business mission to a local newspaper or TV news organization so they will do a major story on us to spread the word to as many cost conscious health care consumers in our service area, which is most of the State of Oregon. Our company slogan is “Health Care Cost really ARE out of control, and we’re doing something about it!” The health care industry is changing but not fast enough for us. More and more people are getting fed up with the status quo of how the health care industry works on behalf of the average American. We’ve taken the most expensive medical image, (the MRI) and made it affordable and easy to access. We are wanting to have an article that will highlight several common scenarios of cost savings that are substantial and shocking enough to get people in the news (consumer protection or consumer savings) area, motivated to do a major story on us and what we are about. It needs to be somewhat like an expose that brings some not so common issues into the light and makes people mad about what they’ve already been through, in their efforts to get affordable, fair, healthcare, or what they will experience if they are not “in the know” and prepared to be an educated health care shopper/ patient. We have patients driving for hours to get to our facility because they have been told by their local hospital that the same procedure that we have for $599 will cost them over $6000. Our website [login to view URL] should provide enough information about us to work with and adding it to some modest web research about pricing and difficulty in getting access to affordable options. We’ve had patients call us from just over the Canadian border wanting to use our services because they are having to wait over 18 months for an MRI and that is only for one body part. If they want more, they have to wait longer. Even though this is an issue of Canadian health care problems, we here in America are having similar waiting and ridiculous cost issues. Article doesn’t have to be that long, but to the point and creative enough to get some people worked up and motivated to do a story. 541-990-3102 Mike.
