Historic and transformative health care reform legislation was signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23rd.  The House voted 219-212 approving legislation passed by the Senate in December 2009.  After approving the Senate bill, the House adopted a package of changes to it by a vote of 220-211. 

The National Patient Advocate Foundation joined more than 200 leading national organizations including the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, the American Heart Association, the American Diabetes Association, Consumers Union, Families USA and the Partnership for Prevention calling for a "YES" vote on health care reform because the cost of doing nothing is much to high!

Prior to President Obama's bipartisan health care reform meeting, National Patient Advocate Foundation delivered constituent cases to White House summit participants to urge the elimination of pre-existing conditions, annual/lifetime limits and capping out-of-pocket expenses.
