'A universal healthcare system utilizing a single-payer model in the state will save California families and businesses over $100 billion per year. The door to quality, universal, and affordable care is open and so now we must walk through.'
, they concluded that a"unified financing" system would not only save thousands of lives, it would save Californians up to half a trillion dollars over the first decade it was adopted.
"Unified Financing" is a term the commission used to describe what is also commonly called Medicare for All or single-payer healthcare. Whatever you call it, this is a reform that would cut out the enormous waste of the for-profit insurance bureaucracy, saving California's families and businesses fully $158 billion per year by 2031, with savings growing every year after that, while improving and expanding care.
Once in office he did act—but carefully. He appointed the commission to fully study all options going forward, including single payer. And study they did. Perhaps no major policy reform in California history has been more comprehensively studied—as we have waited nearly the entirety of Newsom's first term for the commission's conclusions.
Of particular importance—and most certainly significant to the Governor—are the findings that this kind of quality and universal care will help close the significant gaps in health outcomes we see in California based on race and ethnicity, with Black and Brown Californians in particular suffering dramatically higher death rates from Covid-19 and many other diseases.
