The gig will take place on March 5.“When we were asked by Power To The Patients to help raise awareness of the need for transparency in healthcare pricing, we immediately said yes,” the band said in a statement. “People suffering from illness and injury shouldn’t have to worry about being bankrupted by surprise charges for their treatment.”The event will raise awareness of the issues created for millions of patients when hospitals and insurers hide actual upfront prices of medical procedures.

Over 100million Americans are suffering from medical debt due to surprise bills.The Power To The Patients gig isn’t Foo Fighters’ only charitable endeavour of late.
