This year UHPP was tracking a long list of health care bills, from addressing skyrocketing drug costs to improving Medicaid coverage for children, to expanding family planning services and addressing low-value care in our system.
We stayed busy!! Week 1 Update | Week 2| Week 3| Week 4| Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7
During the 2020 session we kept you informed and asked for your support on many important issues:
HB38– Substance Use and Health Care (signed into law March 28th!)
- We created this action alert and this fact sheet
SB74 – Family Planning Services (Held by House HHS Committee)
- We created this action alert and this op-ed draft
HB207– Insulin Access (signed into law March 30th!)
- We created this action alert, this outreach script, this story collection, and this fact sheet
Hb210 – Continuous Eligibility for Kids (moved to an appropriations request, partially FUNDED)
- We created this quick fact sheet
HB313 – Telehealth Parity Amendments (signed into law March 24th)
- We created this fact sheet
HB456 and HB457 – Surprise medical billing solutions (never got a committee hearing)
- We created this fact sheet and this call to action
- This is still an issue that has gone unaddressed! We created this story collecting portal during the session and it is more relevant than ever- please share your experiences.
Where did everything else land?
