But members and NAHU officers also aired thoughts the various proposals to give the federal government an expanding role in health care.

Medicare for All and single-payer are two ideas that would marginalize health agents. NAHU let no doubt where they stand on the issue.

Fun fact: Doubling federal individual and corporate tax receipts wouldn't be enough to pay for #MedicareForAll. https://t.co/8dcMvkATRU #NAHUAC2019
