Building on the GFHC’s five-year strategic goal to achieve 100% universal access to health care coverage of a basic and essential nature, the vision of the Access Committee is to advocate five key principles for health care coverage:
- Universal
- Continuous
- Affordable to individuals
and families - Affordable and sustainable for society
- High quality – effective, efficient, safe, timely, patient-centered and equitable
From late 2008 through mid 2009, the Greater Flint Health Coalition and its Access Committee invited Genesee County to participate in a community-wide dialogue regarding health reform by widely circulating a draft resolution on universal access to health care through local media, newsletters, and presentations. This activity culminated in the Greater Flint Health Coalition Resolution on Universal Access to Health Care. This document reflects the input and deliberations of community members
and organizations representing physicians, hospitals, business, organized labor, government, grassroots community organizations, healthcare consumers, educators, insurers, and most importantly – the residents of Genesee County.
The Resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the GFHC on June 15, 2009.
