Healthcare is a cornerstone of a thriving community, and our vision for Ohio places quality healthcare within reach for every resident. We understand that healthcare disparities have long affected our state, with too many families facing insurmountable challenges in accessing the care they need. Our mission is to eliminate these barriers, ensuring that no Ohioan is left behind.
Affordable health care isn’t just about lowering costs; it’s about transforming our healthcare system to be more equitable and inclusive. We will advocate for policies that expand healthcare access, reduce prescription drug prices, and strengthen public health initiatives. By focusing on preventative care and early intervention, we can reduce the long-term costs of healthcare while improving outcomes for all Ohioans.
In addition, we are committed to addressing the social determinants of health—factors like income, education, and environment that significantly impact health outcomes. Our approach includes investing in community health programs, supporting rural healthcare providers, and ensuring that mental health services are fully integrated into our healthcare system.
We recognize that financial stress should never stand in the way of receiving essential medical care. That’s why our plan includes measures to cap out-of-pocket expenses, expand insurance coverage, and provide support for families struggling with medical debt. We will also work to protect and enhance Medicaid, ensuring that our most vulnerable populations receive the care they deserve.
Our campaign is built on the belief that healthy communities are strong communities. By making healthcare affordable and accessible for all, we are investing in the future of Ohio, where every individual has the opportunity to live a healthy, fulfilling life. Together, let’s build a healthcare system that works for everyone, leaving no one behind.
