House Democrats deliver health care coverage for working people

House Democrats are working hard to address the No. 1 issue for Pennsylvanians of all ages and income levels...affordable and accessible health care.

Pennsylvania ABC would help hundreds of thousands of working Pennsylvanians gain access to affordable coverage and help small businesses cover their employees. The plan also would help doctors pay their medical malpractice insurance premiums.

Pennsylvania ABC would:

• Provide more than 270,000 uninsured working Pennsylvanians access to basic health care.

•  Immediately provide affordable health insurance to the 80,000 Pennsylvanians who are on the adultBasic waiting list.

•  Make $42 million available for grants to small business employers who have been doing the right thing all along by providing health-care coverage to their employees.

• Assist doctors by continuing to help them pay their medical malpractice insurance premiums.

• Lower the cost of uncompensated care for hospitals, which costs us 1.4 billion a year and adds hundreds of dollars to every insurance premium.

• Lower the cost of care for all Pennsylvanians.
