Health Care For All Health Care For All (HCFA), a Massachusetts advocacy group, works to achieve a quality, affordable, Our HelpLine counselors have their ear to the ground.

Health Care For All takes a unique approach, leveraging direct service, policy development, coalition building, community organizing, public education and outreach achieve our mission. Our HelpLine fields 30,000 - 40,000 calls every year from people who need to connect to coverage. We help individuals enroll in public programs, get assistance paying for health insurance, and answer questions about

private insurance. They know what barriers consumers and patients face. From these thousands of calls, we monitor the trends and develop public policy to address the health care challenges of state residents. We work with state, federal, and local administrations to improve our health care system. We convene and are a part of many coalitions to address specific issues. Our coalitions have had great success. From Massachusetts health reform in 2006 to payment and delivery system reform in 2012, Health Care For All always plays an important role in catalyzing meaningful change. Our advocacy team builds relationships with key decision-makers, but we know that real power comes from the bottom-up. That's why we organize -- person by person -- to develop new health care leaders who make their voices heard.

“Racism is a public health crisis.” -HCFA Executive Director, Amy Rosenthal

This morning, Amy joined members of the Health Equity Compact to testify at the State House in support of H.1416 and S.901, An Act to Advance Health Equity.

This bill promotes access to care and a strong, diverse workforce. With continued threats to health care access coming from Washington, the reforms in this bill have never been more necessary. HCFA was thrilled to testify on today’s panel and will continue to advocate for this bill’s passage moving forward.

This morning, in a 6-3 decision the Supreme Court held that the structure of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is constitutional. This means the ACA’s current requirement that insurers offer preventive services at no cost – including cancer screenings & HIV prevention meds – remains in place. This is a victory for the over 150 million Americans who will be able to continue accessing no-cost preventive services – including cancer screenings, HIV prevention medications and mental health counseling. This is great news for health care affordability!

Earlier this week, Grace Jurkovich, policy manager, and Leslie Diaz, HelpLine & public programs director, testified on H.1092, An Act to ensure affordable prescription drugs through accountability standards. They were joined by Sam Fein, a fellow advocate from the Disability Policy Consortium who shared the impact of high drug costs on the disability community.

Their testimonies highlighted the prescription drug affordability challenges in the Massachusetts health care system. H.1092 would build on the prescription drug reform law passed last session to increase accountability of pharmaceutical manufacturers and rein in the excessive health care spending that is burdening families, employers and the state. This bill offers the state an important new tool to conduct affordability reviews of the highest costs drugs, determine their own proposed value and issue recommendations to manufacturers on how to reduce the cost of the drug for patients.
