BigGovHealth Improve and Strengthen Health Care for all Americans

BigGovHealth.org is an initiative of the Center for Medicine in the Public Interest Advance, a nonprofit, non-partisan 501c4 organization that sponsors communication of ideas that focus on the understanding by policymakers, the media and the general public of medical innovation and to effect change in public health care policy in a way that makes health care more affordable, preventative and patient-centered.

BigGovHealth.org features powerful, first-person video testimonials from patients, health care workers and health policy experts from Canada and the United Kingdom – two socialized systems often pointed to as models for reform. These candid interviews look at the costs and consequences of systems that oftentimes try to lower costs and ration care at great expense to patients’ health and well-being.

Health care is arguably the most important domestic policy issue facing the United States. Our country is confronted by major challenges, including rising costs, the uninsured and improving quality. This year, lawmakers, academics and interest groups are offering competing approaches to reform, which range from consumer-driven, market-based innovations to expansive new government-run bureaucracies.

As the policy debate matures, it is important that policymakers, the media and the public understand that government-run health care is not a prescription for reform in the United States. Increased government control over our health care system will stifle innovation and competition, placing patients at greater risk.

Your support will help us fight the move toward government-run health care and advance free-market initiatives to ensure our health care system is affordable, innovative, and patient-centered.
