Iowa Health Care for All
Overview
ICAN is also keeping up the fight for health care reform in the Iowa Legislature. While we believe reform should happen at the federal level, we believe also that there is no guarantee that anything will happen, and it is important to keep an eye on Iowa.

Resources
- Iowa Human Needs Advocates is a working group of over 30 organizations that advocate in the human services arena. ICAN and IHNA have drafted Guiding Principles for Health Care Reform in Iowa.
- Iowa Policy Project has released "Health Care in Iowa: A Continuing Problem of Access". The report shows how one in 11 Iowans falls through the cracks of health-care coverage in Iowa, lacking access to health insurance through an employer or through government services--and despite some recent gains, the percentage of Iowans who are uninsured has not improved from the start of the decade.
Take Action!
Email the Insurance Commissioner
Reform rules must protect consumers, not insurance companies!
Tell Commissioner Voss that you support tough rules and enforcement to stop insurance companies from pocketing our health care dollars for themselves instead of paying for the care we need.
