Secure Health Care for All Campaign

                          

The National Physicians Alliance believes that health care should be guaranteed, of high quality, affordable and accessible for all.  The Secure Health Care For All campaign will inform our elected leaders that health care reform must stay at the top of the national agenda.  Reform should be based on the following principles enunciated by the Institute of Medicine:

1. Health care coverage should be universal.

2. Health care coverage should be continuous.

3. Health care coverage should be affordable to individuals and families.

4. The health care coverage strategy should be affordable and sustainable for society.

5. Health care coverage should enhance health and well-being by promoting access to high-quality, effective, safe, timely, patient-centered, equitable care.
