With so many different views expressed with equal passion, finding solutions for the uninsured has become a political hot potato, and even finding a common starting point for discussions became elusive. The HCCU's signatory organizations -- most of which developed their own proposals for how health coverage could and should be expanded -- recognized the importance of finding common solutions that are both effective and politically feasible.
Together they set aside some of their differences and forged consensus on how to provide health coverage to as many Americans as possible, as quickly as possible.
HCCU signatory organizations include:
| -- AARP -- American Academy of Family Physicians -- American Hospital Association -- American Medical Association -- American Public Health Association -- America's Health Insurance Plans -- Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association -- Catholic Health Association |
-- Families USA -- Federation of American Hospitals -- Healthcare Leadership Council -- Johnson & Johnson -- Kaiser Permanente -- Pfizer Inc. -- United Health Foundation -- U.S. Chamber of Commerce |
