Who are we?
Healthcare for All Ohioans (SPAN Ohio) is a non-profit that has been championing universal healthcare in Ohio for over 20 years. We focus on educating the public and supporting Single-Payer Action Network Ohio, our allied 501(c)4 organization. Our core mission is achieving healthcare reform in Ohio and the United States, guaranteeing healthcare access for all residents.
Exploring Single-Payer Solutions
At Healthcare for All Ohioans, we advocate for achieving universal healthcare coverage in Ohio and the United States. We believe a single-payer healthcare system offers the most effective path towards this goal. What is a Single-Payer System? A single-payer healthcare system provides comprehensive health insurance to all residents of a state, managed by a single public entity. This eliminates the need for private insurance companies. A single-payer healthcare system offers:
- Guaranteed Coverage: Everyone in Ohio would be insured, regardless of employment status, health condition, or age.
- Reduced Costs: By streamlining administration and negotiating lower drug prices, a single-payer system could decrease overall healthcare spending.
- Improved Access: Reduced costs means easier access to preventive care and specialists. You also have your choice of any provider – no more searching “in-network” providers.
A single-payer healthcare system would provide comprehensive coverage for everyone, including medical, vision, dental, and mental health services.
Medical Debt Can Affect Everyone
It doesn’t matter who you are, how hard you worked during your life, or where you life – medical debt can wipe out anyone.
