Mission, Goals & Principles

UHCAN supports the Institute of Medicine principles for health care reform which call for:

• Health care coverage should be universal.
• Health care coverage should be continuous.
• Health care coverage should be affordable to individuals and families.
• The health insurance strategy should be affordable and sustainable for society.
• Health insurance should enhance health and well-being by promoting access to high-quality care that is effective, efficient, safe, timely, patient-centered, and equitable

UHCAN’s mission is to help build, strengthen and connect organizations and coalitions in states and nationally that can effectively engage the public, policymakers and key constituencies to achieve affordable, quality health care for all.
