This website supports state organizations working at the grassroots for universal health care (UHC). We
do not include organizations working on incremental health reforms, that work is
vital but differs fundamentally from UHC work.
OUR MISSION: Project EINO educates the public, encouraging state movement towards an equitable health care system guaranteeing universal access to care, to be accomplished by support of grassroots organizing and empowerment of those communities most at-risk in the current health care system. A focus on the 'Right to Health Care' is recommended as the best strategy to empower these communities.
STRATEGIC KEY: The Right
to Health Care
We encourage all state UHC organizations to recognize that empowering the underprivileged in our society (ethnic minorities, low-income workers etc.) is key to our movements success. These massive sectors of society will become energetic proponents of this movement when we demonstrate our commitment to the "Right to Health Care" for all Americans, similar to the "Right to Education" on which American parents now depend. |

This weeks' quote (Jan 01):
"
The government should promote affordability by providing refundable, advanceable tax credits for moderate-income individuals and working families, so that they can purchase private health insurance.

Last week's quote (Dec 12)
"
One in three Medicare beneficiaries with Part D now gets this coverage through private "Medicare Advantage" (MA). Analysis of the sources of and reasons for enrollment growth suggest a troubling report card. The Medicare Modernization Act, creating MA, has expanded choice and the private-sector role. But it also has added to Medicare's complexity and costs and has created potential inequities, without apparent improvements in quality.
