Frequently Asked Questions

What is Utah Health Policy Project (UHPP)?

Utah Health Policy Project (UHPP) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501(c)(3), organization advancing sustainable health care solutions for underserved Utahns through better access, education, and public policy.

Since 2006 UHPP has worked hard to develop solutions to create a health system that provides better access to higher quality health care at a lower cost. We pride ourselves on being an open resource for the public, community leaders, the media, businesses, health care providers and policymakers.

We bring individuals and organizations to the same table, recognizing that effective and long-term solutions are fostered by authentic collaboration among disparate stakeholders.  Our role is to ensure the consumer voice is present.
