Access & Health Coverage
Last week, the House and Senate passed alternative bills that would reauthorize and expand the State Children's Health Insurance Program \(SCHIP\), which is set to expire September 30.
The Health Coverage Coalition for the Uninsured \(HCCU\), a diverse group of national organizations that includes the AHA, today announced a consensus proposal to cover a significant portion of the nation's nearly 47 million uninsured people.
The negative consequences of uninsurance are far reaching, compromising children’s ability to go to school and affecting their future capacity to engage in society in a productive way
