Health Care for All can be a reality in Maryland!

Health care is an essential safeguard of human life and dignity, and there is an
obligation for society to ensure that every person be able to realize this right.

Cardinal Joseph Bernadin, Chicago

Nationally, the number of uninsured and underinsured is
growing at an alarming rate with a staggering 44.3 million
people without coverage in 1998. Last year our state
experienced the third largest increase in the number of
uninsured with over 835,000 Marylanders without health
coverage - one out of six in our own state. Of the
hundreds of thousands without coverage, 100,000 are
our children.

Disgraceful? Yes. Insurmountable? No.

We are at the crossroads of an historic opportunity
to transform Maryland's health care system and
provide comprehensive coverage for all of our
citizens. The eyes of many around the country are
on Maryland.

Join the Maryland Citizens' Health Initiative in our
efforts to guarantee quality, affordable Health Care 

For All Marylanders.

 

             The time is now. The place is here.

                                         
 

Our goal in 2000 is to increase the network of stakeholders and supporting
organizations and create a forum for educating Maryland citizens about the
uninsured in our state. Sign our Declaration of Health Care Independence
and join in Maryland's health care transformation.

We plan to sign "2000 by 2002".
