WellPoint believes that building a better health care system for Americans should bring us together, not drive us apart.  To be successful, we must focus on the goals we all share and work together – Congress, the President and the private sector.

There is consensus, after all, on the characteristics our health care system should possess.

• Accessible and affordable health care for all Americans.

• High standards of quality should be delivered in every hospital, clinic and doctor’s office, no matter what their location.

• A more efficient health care system, with dollars dedicated to the best and most appropriate treatments and technologies for patients instead of waste and redundancies.

• Investment in resources to keep people well instead of simply treating symptoms and illness.

• Cutting-edge information technology to make health care safe, portable and cost-effective.

These principles have broad support and should form the foundation for health care reform.

We’ve created this Web site to provide useful facts and ideas about how to improve our health care system.  Here you’ll find information on health reform and the role each of us plays as citizens to encourage responsible reform.

WellPoint remains committed to leading the way toward the answers our country needs.
