Healthcare for Every New Yorker



The New York Health Act [A.5248a, S.3577a] will provide comprehensive, universal health coverage for every New Yorker. You and your healthcare providers will work to keep you healthy—New York Health pays the bill. We need to fight back against the congressional attacks on affordable healthcare nationally and organize in New York for a healthcare system that guarantees coverage for all of us.

Read our new report ‘From Coverage to Care: A People’s Report on Healthcare in New York State.' Based on hundreds of surveys conducted between 2017 and 2019, the key finding of the report is that a startling 50% of New Yorkers covered by private health insurance plans delayed or skipped basic care due to cost. Citing financial barriers, New Yorkers are foregoing basic care, including regular checkups, diagnostic testing, vision care, dental care, and prescription drugs.
