Health Care for All New York (fiscal sponsor: Hispanic Federation)

While New York has made great strides in increasing access to health coverage, disparities in health persist. Some of these disparities arise from unequal access to quality affordable care. Even insured patients struggle to find providers, schedule timely appointments, or afford out-of-pocket costs. In 2024, NYHealth awarded Health Care for All New York (HCFANY) a grant to develop and implement a new consumer advocacy agenda focused on primary care. In 2025, NYHealth awarded HCFANY a grant to continue to mobilize consumer advocates in New York to advance primary care policies. 

Under this grant, HCFANY will deepen its advocacy on primary care investment and address other consumer-led priorities. It will continue to focus on three core policy areas: expanded coverage, enhanced affordability, and improved accessibility of primary care services. In its role representing consumers in these forums, HCFANY will elevate both primary care policies and consumer perspectives to primary care policy discussions. HCFANY member organizations will conduct policy research and analysis, communications, community outreach and education, and administrative policy advocacy to advance its efforts.
