To expand access to quality, affordable health care in the near term while paving a path toward durable, people-centered federal policies that achieve our mission.
We envision a health care system that provides people with high-quality, personalized care that meets their unique needs at a price they can afford. In this improved, easy-to-navigate system, people will know they can depend on their health care coverage throughout life’s changes, and get the care they need, when and how they need it.
In order to achieve improved outcomes for people, health care policies must protect people from financial devastation due to illness or injury, be fiscally responsible and achieve the political support necessary to ensure long-term stability.
