Bill > HCR12

This resolution calls upon New Hampshire's federal congressional delegation to support and pass Medicare for All, a universal health insurance program designed to provide comprehensive healthcare coverage to all citizens and legal residents. The resolution highlights the current healthcare system's shortcomings, including high costs, complexity, and widespread under-insurance, and argues that Medicare for All would provide a more efficient, sustainable approach to healthcare. The proposed legislation would guarantee enrollment options for all citizens and legal residents, include comprehensive coverage spanning dental, vision, prescription drugs, and long-term care without deductibles, integrate current Medicaid recipients into the Medicare program, emphasize preventive care and chronic illness management, preserve patients' freedom to choose healthcare providers, and ensure robust quality and safety regulations. The resolution stems from concerns about medical bankruptcies, rising healthcare costs for individuals and municipalities, and the belief that healthcare should be a universal right. If passed, the resolution would instruct the house clerk to send a signed copy to each member of New Hampshire's congressional delegation, formally communicating the state's support for Medicare for All.
