description
One Payer States is an advocacy organization that promotes adoption of a single-payer, publicly funded universal health care system implemented through state-level and regional campaigns. The group describes the model as government funding of health care with private delivery, elimination of private insurance middlemen, and coverage without copays or deductibles.
The organization organizes meetings and events, produces communications and educational materials, builds state and regional coalitions, recruits volunteers and donors, and advocates for legislative and policy change to achieve one-payer systems in U.S. states.
