More than 40 million Americans do not have health insurance. As a result of the recent healthcare reform, 94 percent of all citizens and legal residents below Medicare age eventually will have access to health insurance, a big jump from the current 83 percent.

Execution will be challenging, and we rely on our network of partners to help guide the nation through a challenging period of transition, continuing efforts to expand coverage to those still uninsured.

Events are held coast to coast so that more Americans can learn about this critical issue and how it affects every American, not just those who are uninsured.
