Read MoreThe Consumer Health Advocacy and Information Network (CHAIN) is a non-profit organization focused on advancing bio-science innovation and market-based ideas for improving access and affordability of health care.
CHAIN was established to bring local community voices into the debate on healthcare and champion the best in bold, creative solutions to fix growing healthcare challenges. Our goal is to move away from polarized political rhetoric to foster more attention on practical solutions for patients and their families.
CHAIN has published two white papers on ideas that could yield billions in savings on prescription medicines: greater use of biosimilar drugs and adoption of comprehensive drug rebate reform.
Our 2024 agenda will include advancing these and other critical ideas that maintain America’s position as the leading innovator in healthcare while prioritizing patients and their families. We are supported by organizations, corporations and individuals aligned with our mission. We develop our agenda through in-depth research, listening to the community and input from our policy advisory committee.
CHAIN’s activities and perspectives are what we like to call ‘a-partisan,’ meaning neither ideology nor partisan politics fits into our mission. Our ideas and actions are strictly solution-driven on behalf of what’s right for healthcare consumers.
We convene community leaders, industry experts, public officials and everyday people from across the Southwest Region to advocate together for fair solutions for the high cost of healthcare.
Listening, researching and acting. We work to find the collect wisdom of everyday Americans confronting the rising complexity and cost of healthcare.
We blend community input with a search for the best ideas around the country from think tanks, policy makers and industry experts.
From there we encourage consideration, thought and action around how to implement healthcare ideas that are consumer-driven and market-based to maximize consumer benefit.
And we convene community leaders, public servants and other influencers to advocate together for solutions that reshape how healthcare functions in our state.
Too many people and families across the state are struggling to keep up with skyrocketing healthcare costs. We know because we asked. In 2019, we found out that nearly 60 percent of Coloradans, alone, surveyed were either unwilling or unable to seek medical care because of the cost. Similar research is planned for those living in Utah, Arizona and Nevada.
That’s why we do it. Because the U.S. can do better.
And together, we can reshape healthcare.
