DID YOU KNOW?...
There are 1.6 million NYC residents, or 1 in 4 people, under the age of 65 who have no health insurance.
Our public hospitals, long term care facilities, and clinics are the major health care services in the city, along with federally funded Health Centers, that are required to serve anyone, regardless of ability to pay.
Our public health care system has always served low income families, the uninsured, documented and undocumented immigrants, the mentally ill, people with HIV/AIDS and TB, and others with health problems.
Our public health system has a long- standing history of providing high quality care and pioneering improvements in the delivery of health care services.
Public health is the front line of our defense, our safety valve against illness, epidemics and disasters. |
