Presentation Set On NY's Single-Payer Health Plan

OSSINING, NY — Healthcare is an important issue for many Americans. Although 90 percent of New Yorkers have health insurance, many people cannot afford the premiums, co-pays, deductibles, or high cost of prescription drugs.

CCoHope Indivisible will host a presentation on the New York Health Act, a single payer system that would provide comprehensive coverage (including vision, dental, and mental health) for all New Yorkers.

The panel of experts includes: State Senator Gustavo Rivera, sponsor of the New York Health Act, Peter Arno, PhD., healthcare economist, and Katie Robbins, Director of the Campaign for New York Health.

The event is free and open to the public.

WHEN: 7 p.m. Sept. 26

WHERE: Ossining Public Library Conference Room

WHAT: Presentation on the New York Health Act
