Reserve tickets here:   Colorado Universal Healthcare Debate

 
 
Healthcare coverage today is not equitable, universally accessible or affordable.  Costs continue to soar - so much so that nearly two-thirds, or 62%, of all bankruptcy filings in the United States in 2007 were due to illness or medical bills according to the American Journal of Medicine. While we'd like to think these numbers pertain only to the uninsured in America, most of those in the study were well educated and middle class; 3/4 of those in the study had health insurance.
 
Industry experts agree: our current healthcare system unsustainable. Americans deserve other options, and a group in Colorado has rallied to get an issue on the ballot this November that could change the way Coloradoans receive healthcare. Now, Amendment 69 could mean that all residents of the state will be covered by universal healthcare. But what is the cost and what does it mean for our future?
 
Colorado Treasurer, Walker Stapleton and NY Times Best Selling Healthcare Policy Author and Chairman of the Board of The Colorado Foundation for Universal Health Care, T.R. Reid will engage in an exciting and informative debate on Wednesday, September 21st at 7AM at the University Club in Denver, CO. Todd Breyfogle from the Aspen Institute, will moderate the event. 
 
Advocates for the amendment claim that not only will the law give Coloradoans more options for sustainable healthcare, it will be a model for the rest of the country.
