Welcome to the

Health Care Reform Advocacy Group

of LWV of Washtenaw County.

League of Women Voters Health Care Positions

The US health care system should provide all US residents with a basic level of quality health care at an affordable cost. Basic care includes disease prevention, primary care (including prenatal and reproductive health), acute and long-term care, mental health care, and health promotion and education. Health care policy goals should includes the equitable distribution of services and delivery of care, advancement of medical research and technology, and a reasonable total national expenditure level. 

The League of Women Voters believes that public policy must affirm the right of privacy of the individual to make reproductive choices and that every individual should have access to quality health care at an affordable cost.
