(51,907 posts)The Washington Health Security Trust: How to Get to State-based Universal Healthcare
Thursday, May 23, 2013, 7 pm
St. Lukes Community Health Education Center
3333 Squalicum Parkway (near St. Josephs Hospital)
Bellingham WA
Speaker: Marcia Stedman of Health Care for All Washington
Chair of the Writers Team and Convener of the HCFA-WA Sno-King Action Team
The presentation outlines how feasible it is to get to universal coverage for all residents in
the state of Washington while we wait for Congress to pass an Improved and Expanded Medicare for All. Mandatory private health insurance, under the federal Affordable Care Act, is
NOT universal health care. The Washington Health Security Trust bill complies with the Affordable Care Act and details how state-based universal health care would be organized in Washington State.
