Jelly Roll, Lainey Wilson, Valerie June Demand Healthcare Reforms: ‘Hospitals and Insurers Are Robbing Us’
The three artists called for pricing transparency in a PSA from Power to the Patients set to air during Super Bowl LVIII

Jelly Roll, Lainey Wilson, and Valerie June combined forces to call for a more transparent and equitable healthcare system in a new PSA set to air this Sunday during Super Bowl LVIII.
Organized by the nonprofit group Power to the Patients, the spot specifically highlights the way hospitals and insurance companies are able to get away with not clearly stating how much certain services and procedures cost and then billing patients afterward. This has contributed to astronomical levels of medical debt around the United States.
“Hospitals and insurers are robbing all of us,” Wilson states bluntly at the start of the PSA, while later, Jelly Roll says, “Their greed is destroying the American Dream.” Alongside June, they call on Congress to “put a stop to the overcharging” and “hold hospitals and insurance companies accountable.”
In a statement, Jelly Roll added: “Hospitals and Insurance companies all around the United States are stealing our future by looting every patient, worker, employer, and family across the country.”
