Policy Priorities
Better Care
More Choice
Lower Costs
The Center for a Healthy America is invested in improving the health of Americans now and for generations to come. Decisions about what, how, and where care is received should be made by patients and doctors not by politicians and bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., state capitals, and industry. AFPI will create healthcare policies and educate stakeholders to put the patient and doctor in control, dignify life, promote better health and health outcomes, improve access, and lower costs for Americans. This is critically important as the health of Americans is essential for a thriving and prosperous country.
AFPI’s Center for a Healthy America works to create policies that give all Americans full agency in decisions that affect their health and well-being. In order for America’s healthcare system to return to its primary mission of improving the health and health outcomes of Americans and reach its full potential, advancement must focus on putting patients first to improve the individual and population health of America.
