Bill > SB562

This bill, the Healthy California Act, would create the Healthy California program to provide comprehensive universal single-payer health care coverage and a health care cost control system for the benefit of all residents of the state. The program would cover a wide range of medical benefits and other services, incorporating health care benefits and standards from existing federal and state programs like Medi-Cal, CHIP, and Medicare. The bill would establish the Healthy California Board to govern the program and prohibit health care service plans and health insurers from offering certain health benefits or services covered by the program. The bill would also authorize health care providers to collectively negotiate rates and payment methodologies with the program.
