The Telly Awards was founded in 1980, to showcase and give recognition to outstanding non-network and cable TV commercials. The competition was expanded several years ago to include film and video productions as well as non-network TV programming. In the 21 years since its beginning, the Telly Awards has become a well-known, highly respected national competition. The Telly has become one of the most sought-after awards in the TV, commercial and video industry. The purpose of this 15-minute video, entitled Hysterectomy: the Decision is Yours, is to educate women in effective ways of communicating with their health care providers about hysterectomy, and to teach decision making skills that women can use in making decisions about these surgeries. The target audience is women who have been told that they may need a hysterectomy or who have conditions for which hysterectomy is a treatment option.
