More and more Connecticut residents are learning that our broken health care system hurts everyone.

Those without adequate insurance spend increasing amounts of their tight budgets to pay for expenses insurance doesn't cover. Residents and the economy suffer as businesses cut other spending to cope with escalating health insurance costs.  

Every day, thousands of people with insurance face the risk of having affordable health care slip out of reach. Right now, more than 325,000 residents are uninsured. Everyone pays in some way for these gaps in coverage. In 2005, this expense added $200 to the cost of an annual individual insurance policy premium and $585 to a family policy premium.

The Foundation is working to create a better future for our residents. A universal health care system that would work best for Connecticut is one that is shaped by public dialogue, impartial research and non-partisan debate.

Together, we can do it.
