Idaho Health Care For All (PNHP - Idaho Chapter)

Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) is a not-for-profit organization of physicians, medical students, and other health care professionals that support a national health insurance (NHI) program. Specifically, we believe that a single-payer system (where the government finances health care, but keeps the delivery of health care to mostly private control) is the only solution to solving the United States' many health care problems: 43 million citizens with no health insurance, many more with only limited coverage, skyrocketing health insurance premiums, malpractice costs, long-term care issues, and relatively poor health indicators, when compared to similar industrialized nations.

"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 Bernardin, Chicago Archdiocese
