What we do
We leverage timely information and on-the-ground research to improve access to affordable health care for low-income people.
Why coverage matters
Medicaid and Medicare are pivotal in providing health care coverage to enable people to lead healthier lives, obtain needed health care services and focus on achieving greater economic stability.
Today’s challenges demand deep understanding of health policy issues facing low-income populations and dynamic approaches to problem solving as public programs continue to evolve to meet needs.
Who we work with
- Federal, state and local government
- Health organizations
- Community-based organizations
- The broader policy community, through publications, convenings, presentations, testimony and briefings

Improving understanding of the role of health coverage programs, identifying gaps and disparities in coverage and financing to underpin policy development.

-
Listen and inform
Listening and learning from people’s experiences, drawing on the research evidence, and informing policy at the federal, state and local level is integral to building workable solutions.
