Goodbye, Medical Debts!

Great News: our campaign to eliminate medical debt in northern New England more than doubled expectations! RIP Medical Debt leveraged our donation of $10,157 to eliminate a whopping $2.2 million in outstanding medical debts! Prime ATC’s campaign ultimately benefited 1,957 families in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont.

How was this possible, you might ask? RIP Medical Debt used our donation to purchase bundled medical debt portfolios on the secondary debt market, and then forgave that debt at pennies on the dollar. On average, $1 is leveraged to abolish $100 in debts. When debt relief recipients open the yellow envelope from RIP Medical Debt, they are told that their debt has been bought by a third party and erased with no strings attached. They owe nothing on the debt and face no tax penalty. 

Prime ATC donated 20% of all capsule sales in January and February to support this effort. Thanks to all patients who participated by buying capsules or by donating directly! We would also like to thank United Canna Supply for stepping up with a generous donation of $1,157!

Here’s a county-by-county breakdown of medical debts that have been eliminated as a result of this campaign:

Our Community Outreach program is off to an amazing start in 2023! We are currently raising money for the national MS Society and will announce the results of that campaign soon.

Help Prime Eliminate Medical Debt!

We are kicking off 2023 with an ambitious community outreach project: eliminating medical debt in northern New England! Prime will donate 20% of all capsule sales in January and February to support this worthy cause.

RIP Medical Debt is a non-profit organization that uses donations to purchase bundled medical debt portfolios on the secondary debt market, and then forgives that debt at pennies on the dollar. Prime ATC’s campaign with RIP Medical Debt will benefit individuals and families with outstanding debts in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont.

On average, $1 is leveraged to abolish $100 in debts, and every donation through this campaign will be spent directly on abolishing medical debt in northern New England. When debt relief recipients open the yellow envelope from RIP Medical Debt, they are told that their debt has been bought by a third party and erased with no strings attached. They owe nothing on the debt and face no tax penalty. 

Every dollar we contribute will be a $100 investment in northern New England. On average, $8.87 will wipe out the debt associated with a single billing account. Money will stay in the community instead of being taken by debt collectors. Our goal is to raise $10,000, which will eliminate approximately $1 million in debts.

Help us raise $10,000 and make a $1 million impact on New England medical debt relief.
