12 questions about single-payer health care

Single-payer countries tend to get more favorable ratings than the American health-care system.

Healthcare-NOW! is a national coalition fighting to win healthcare as a human right through a single-payer healthcare system. We will win by building a social movement of patients, workers, providers, employers, and others who believe that access to healthcare is basic to human dignity, and we will overcome the power of the healthcare industry one community at a time.

Unions for Single Payer Health Care

When we most need help, we face endless paperwork, sky-high costs and a faceless, unresponsive non-system. Everything is way harder and more expensive than it needs to be. We need a simple, paperless, coordinated, affordable, transparent and accessible system.
