How Will We Pay for Single Payer Heath Care?

When: Tuesday, March 10, 7:30PM

Where: 10 Union Square East at 14th Street, 2nd Floor Auditorium

Join us for a presentation on the first-ever study of how to finance single payer health care in New York State.

Featuring:
Gerald Friedman, PhD, Chair of the Department of Economics, UMass Amherst

Moderator:
Steve Toff, New York State Nurses Association

Join Dr. Friedman for his presentation on the first-ever economic impact study of how a universal, publicly financed single payer health care system will be funded in New York State. Based on the Gottfried/Perkins New York Health Act, this study provides the facts and figures we need to fight for a system that puts people over profits!

How will we pay for single payer? How much will it cost? Who will save money? How much savings can we expect? How will single payer impact jobs? How will this impact medical bankruptcies and out of pocket costs?

Contact your State Legislators and urge them to support the Gottfried/Perkins New York Health Act (A.5062/S.3525) to create a truly universal, single payer healthcare system in New York State.
