Health Care That Meets People’s Needs

We envision a future where all people have dependable access to high-quality health care in a way that meets their unique needs at a price they can afford.

This means building a better health care system based on the following outcomes:

  • Affordable: People have certainty they can afford their health care.
  • Dependable: People have the security and freedom that dependable health care coverage provides as life changes.
  • Personal: People can get the personalized care they need, when and how they need it.
  • Understandable: People experience a health care system that’s understandable and easy to navigate.

Our Current Priorities

Our nation’s elected leaders face monumental challenges in improving our health care system. We prioritize improvements that will build the health care system people want.

COVID-19 Pandemic Response

COVID-19 is shining a light on historical inequities in our care system and the underlying disparity and access issues, especially for the most vulnerable. Our team continues to provide real-time resources for federal and state leaders responding to the pandemic.

Health Care Costs

USofCare is working to make sure that people across the country have certainty they can afford their health care. People want to know that they can afford the care they receive and that they won’t have to choose between their health and potential bankruptcy.

Public Option

Getting the health coverage that people need has become too expensive for too many Americans. A public health insurance option, often called a “public option” is an emerging solution that would create a high quality, dependable, more affordable option for health insurance.

Dependable Coverage

Through our listening work and public opinion surveys, we know that people want the certainty they can afford their health care and the security and freedom that dependable health care coverage provides as life changes.

Mental Health

Though demand for mental health care continues to grow, the American mental health care delivery system is underprepared for response. USofCare is working to make sure that people across the country can access the mental health care they need, when they need it.

Virtual Care

With a focus on improving implementation of virtual care to increase access to care, we will achieve our goals that people can get the personalized care they need, when and how they need it.

We work at the state and federal levels to secure legislative, executive and administrative solutions that most effectively address people’s needs.
