As the debate on health care reform develops, one thing is clear: all Americans, including Hispanics, deserve solutions that will tackle our nation’s broken health care system and provide quality, affordable health care to everyone. Without a system that requires equal and shared responsibility from providers, businesses, health plans, and consumers, families across the nation will be forced to bear the lion’s share of rising costs with less and less access to health care. For many Latinos and other Americans, addressing this crisis requires policymakers to refine provisions for culturally and linguistically appropriate health care, address the barriers to health insurance that more than 47 million uninsured Americans face, improve the quality of health care, and correct flaws in the system that create health care disparities among racial and ethnic minorities.
