Welcome
to Ohio Advocates for Health Care Access.
OAHCA is a consortium of organizations from across Ohio working together to advocate for access to quality health care for Ohioans.
The OAHCA network includes voluntary health associations, medical professionals, the bio-technology industry, business, labor and community groups. Many organizations provide services directly to patients and their families. They also advocate for patients with chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, asthma, pulmonary disease, heart disease, arthritis, mental illness, liver and kidney disease, vision impairment, AIDS, epilepsy and many others.
As a statewide network, OAHCA focuses on information and education relating to health care access issues. Please visit the “Event Archive” section of this Web site for notes and information on topics of interest to OAHCA partners. Recent events took place with the Ohio Chapter of the Partnership to Fight Chronic Disease. The national PFCD initiative continues advocating for disease management and prevention provisions in federal health reform legislation. |
