LEGISLATION INTRODUCED TO MAKE HEALTH CARE A RIGHT IN NEW YORK STATE

Doctors, Nurses, Patients Advocates (of course including members from HCN!-NYC) joined Assembly member Richard Gottfried, Senator Thomas Duane and 70 lawmakers in unveiling an updated and revised single-payer legislative proposal for New York State. A state study says that single payer would reduce overall health care expenditures in New York by $20 billion annually by 2019. And people would not need to choose between getting less income to qualify for Medicaid and going without insurance since it is unaffordable.
