We are the researchers, doctors, nurses, dentists, pharmacists, podiatrists, optometrists, physician assistants, therapists, lab technicians, phlebotomists, Xray technologists, chiropractors, aestheticians, counselors, healthcare advocates, front office staff, back-office staff and EMS personnel who help you when you need us. There are 150,000 healthcare workers in Nevada, 5% of the state’s population. If each of us can find 3 friends and only half the population in the state votes we will be 40% of voters and can get anyone we want elected, and any law passed. We are Nevada’s White Coat Party, a group of healthcare providers dedicated to fixing the broken healthcare system in Nevada. Join us in our mission to improve healthcare for all. It’s free to join.
Politicians don’t have the answer. Insurance companies have an answer, but it isn’t one that helps YOU. Pharmacy benefit plan managers and hospital chain CEOs aren’t much better. Maybe the people who actually provide the care, who live here in Nevada, know how to fix things to best take care of you, their neighbors, families and friends. At least you have met them. At least they have a personal interest in seeing you get better, even if it’s just pride in a job well done. Corporate CEOs are paid for only one job: to maximize profits. That means charging as much as people can possibly pay. If the prices are going to be as high as the market would bear anyway, wouldn’t it be better if the money went to people who live here in Nevada and will spend the money here in Nevada, in restaurants, on piano lessons, on home improvements and haircuts? Why not create laws that divert the money from out-of-state companies with foreign shareholders, to the people who actually do the work here in Nevada.
We plan to support up to 20 candidates for office in the Nevada legislature to help write laws that improve healthcare in Nevada and keep the money spent on healthcare here in Nevada in the pockets of Nevadans to recirculate here in our state. We think we can write laws that do that without increasing the costs of healthcare for consumers.
We need your help. Please visit our website and share stories about your healthcare journey and potential solutions for the challenges to improving healthcare in Nevada. There are good chances we will add your suggestions to our legislative agenda, which we will be sharing with Nevada’s Governor, State Senators, and State Assembly members. Vote for the people who vote to take care of your health. Remember that together we really can change things for the better.
