Unionists HEAT up drive for universal healthcare

Join the "Health Care for America NOW!" campaign.






Support Funding for NYC Health Care

State funding for the NYC Health and Hospitals Corporation is at stake in Albany. Governor Paterson and the New York State Assembly and Senate need to permanently re-authorize $300 million in critical Disproportionate Share (DSH) funding.

This DSH funding, which won't cost NYS any money, will allow HHC to pay for the growing number of uninsured patients that are currently not reimbursed.
HHC is facing a $1 billion deficit for fiscal year 2011. HHC needs DSH funds in order to survive and thrive in meeting its mission of providing care to all regardless of ability to pay.

Call Governor Paterson and your legislator
toll-free TODAY: 1-877-255-9417


Send a message to keep HHC
Surviving and thriving for years to come.
