Inflation + sicker patients + deep cuts to health care = an uncertain future for Californians. Read our media statement on the Office of Health Care Affordability’s recent decision to cut billions from health care & why hospitals are pushing back to protect patients:

Your health care & your local hospital — that’s what Californians stand to lose if Congress cuts Medicaid. In San Joaquin Valley, 67% rely on Medi-Cal but 100% rely on their hospital to be there in an emergency. Lawmakers: life-saving care requires funding. Protect Medicaid.

Patients always deserve high-quality care they can access without jumping through hoops. Thanks to Assemblymember Dawn Addis’ AB 510, John Harabedian’s AB 512 & Chair of Assembly Health, Assemblymember Mia Bonta, Californians are one step closer to getting the care they need, when they need it. #CaLeg

Meaningful change takes time. That’s why hospitals have worked for decades to lower the cost of health care for all Californians, including by providing free and reduced-cost care to patients with low incomes, and investing in integrated primary care and community-based services.

California hospitals make miracles a daily routine. They save the lives of premature babies, extend the lives of cancer patients, improve the lives of those experiencing traumatic harm, and more. That doesn’t happen without adequate funding. #CaHospitals #HospitalsInAction

Cuts to Medicaid would have devastating consequences for all Californians and the health systems they rely on. At Sierra View Medical Center, more than 41% of patients rely on Medi-Cal — so does the hospital to fund patient care. “We urge policymakers to understand the full

The best way to reduce health care costs is to ensure Californians get the right care, in the right place, at the right time. That means the entire health care system must work together to make care more affordable.

“Ambulance times will be longer. Wait times for the entire population in the ER will be longer,” said Adam Dougherty, chief of emergency medicine at Sutter Health to The Sacramento Bee about threats to patient care in CA if Congress cuts Medicaid.

State-of-the-art health care must be available to all Californians, including those covered by Medi-Cal and Medicare. That means preventing cuts to these programs and investing in their future.

“The hospital financial structure is not infinite — it is fragile. And without intervention, it may not hold much longer,” said Chris Van Gorder, President & CEO of Scripps Health, about how Medicaid cuts would hurt Californians and their hospitals.

Too many Californians struggle with underinsurance — their insurers charge high deductibles/copays but offer limited services, leaving patients with massive out-of-pocket costs for care that should have been covered. All the while, insurance company profits continue to rise.

DYK expectant mothers who travel an extra 6 miles to deliver their baby have an 11% increased risk of negative outcomes & a 15% higher risk of their baby being admitted to the NICU? Increasing access to maternity care is key to preventing poor outcomes & reducing disparities.

Hospitals won’t back down when it comes to protecting patients. CA hospital leaders flew to DC to discuss the importance of Medicaid and what’s at stake for millions of Californians if it’s cut: Families who rely on Medicaid could lose their health insurance. Hospitals who rely

Congress is currently considering cuts to Medicaid that stand to reshape health care in CA for the worse — lost health coverage and reduced access to care for patients, less services and/or shuttered doors at hospitals, and lost jobs for hospital and health care workers. All

CA hospitals’ contributions are endless — helping birth nearly 400K babies, employing close to 1M workers, supporting the 4th highest life expectancy in the nation, and so much more. This National Hospital Week, learn about hospitals’ communities of care and the countless lives

Californians made their priorities loud and clear when they overwhelmingly passed Prop 35: Medi-Cal and protecting access to health care services are paramount. Now, the administration’s budget proposal is ignoring Prop 35 and shortchanging 15M Californians who rely on Medi-Cal.

As Californians’ behavioral health challenges rise, one thing is clear: Patients need more support than ever, both inside and outside the hospital. Thankfully, Maggy Krell, Assemblymember James C. Ramos, Assemblymember Damon Connolly, Matt Haney & Senator Eloise Gómez Reyes are authoring bills to expand Californians’

$715B in proposed Medicaid cuts would gut health care for millions of Californians. Read our letter to the CA congressional delegation opposing these painful cuts and how they put health care services at risk for all. Read our letter: bit.ly/44EVsHq

Californians’ story is deeply woven into the hospital story — babies delivered, care provided, lives saved. SCR-71 and HR-41 honor that story and the work of hospitals by recognizing National Hospital Week in California. Thank you, Dr. Lori Morgan, President & CEO of
