An Argument for Single-Payer National Health Insurance 7:00-8:30 pm
Registration cancellations will be accepted until April 22, 2019 at 10:00 AM
What is Single Payer? What are the myths? Where are single-payer systems in place and working? How would we pay for a single-payer system and is it affordable? Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) is a non-profit research and education organization of 18,000 health professionals who support single payer health insurance. Two speakers affiliated with PHNP will address these questions and more: Augie Lindmark, U of M Medical School Class of 2019 and member of the national PHNP board, and Dr. Laurel Gamm, recent co-chair of PNHP Minnesota board and a family practice physician at Minnesota Community Care, doing primary care for homeless adults.
