Ignagni joins ad sponsors at press conference
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- America's Health
Insurance Plans (AHIP) today welcomed a new ad campaign by a broad
stakeholder coalition that urges the next president and Congress to put
health care reform at the top of the national agenda.
Sponsored by the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, the
American Hospital Association, the Catholic Health Association, Families
USA and the National Federation of Independent Business, the ads feature
the fictional characters Harry and Louise.
Appearing with the sponsor organizations at a news conference at the
National Press Club, AHIP President and CEO Karen Ignagni applauded their
focus on cooperation and consensus building.
"We fully support this campaign because the seeds of workable reform
are planted in efforts like this: diverse stakeholders from across the
spectrum working together to find common ground," Ignagni said.
"Over the past two years, AHIP's Board of Directors has developed a
range of comprehensive policy proposals to ensure that all Americans have
access to affordable, high-quality health care. Our plan is coverage you
can afford, coverage you can keep, coverage for all Americans," said
Ignagni.
"While offering solutions is important, we know that real progress will
not happen unless stakeholders reach out and work together. That's why we
are pleased to be here to lend our support as the AHA, the American Cancer
Society, the Catholic Health Association, Families USA and NFIB come
together to launch this new campaign," said Ignagni.
