Endorse the Campaign

Your organization can endorse the healthcare4every1 campaign if it agrees with the Institute of Medicine’s principles for universal health care:

  • Health care coverage should be universal — it should cover everyone.
  • Health care coverage should be continuous, portable from job to job, and between employed and unemployed status.
  • Health care coverage should be affordable, especially to low-income individuals and families.
  • The health insurance strategy should be affordable and sustainable for society.
  • Health insurance should enhance health and well-being by promoting access to high-quality care that is effective, efficient, safe, timely, patient-centered and equitable.

Your endorsement will be listed on the healthcare4every1 Web site and publicized to further promote the healthcare4every1 campaign.
