Advocate
We need your participation to make others aware of the Imperative Foundation, our mission and objectives, and how they can be achieved.
We ask that you:
- Tell your family and friends about the Imperative Foundation and our website.
- Use your social media to let your followers know of the Imperative Foundation.
- Inform your employer of the Imperative Foundation; your employer is likely seeking solutions for providing health care benefits.
Stay Informed
Donate
The opportunity to truly reform U.S. health care is now.
For the Imperative Foundation to achieve our shared mission to bring about health care reform and quality and affordable health care for all, we need you and the American people to donate.
National Alliance
For more than fifty years, congress has demonstrated that it will not and cannot reform health care or implement universal health care.
Only a National Alliance of citizens and employers can compel congress to reform our health care system and transition the nation to universal health care.
Building the National Alliance requires the advocacy, participation, and donations from those who seek better health care for their families and communities. We will be developing regional groups to engage citizens, employers, and communities for participation in the National Alliance.
If you would like to assist in developing the National Alliance and have organizational skills, send us an email at volunteer@imperativefoundation.org. Be sure you put “National Alliance” in the subject area. Be aware that it may take some time for us to respond.
In the email, tell us about your background (provide a Linkedin link or bio) and how you would like to assist.
Tell Us Your Story
It is important for personal stories to become part of the health care discussion. Numbers, charts and graphics cannot communicate what citizens have experienced.
We would like to hear your story about an experience in our U.S. health care system. The story can illustrate either the good or the bad. We would like to hear from citizens, employers, nurses, physicians, politicians, and others who have stories that bring a personal perspective to the health care discussion.
If you want to share your story with the Imperative Foundation, we would like your permission to publish the story on our website. If we publish your story on our website or social media, we will not include your name or contact information. In writing your story, do not include information that may lead to your identity. It is also important to write an accurate story.
By sending us your story, you will be giving us permission to condense your story (if needed), and publish the story. You can email your story to mystory@imperativefoundation.org.
Employers
“Forget [corporate] Taxes, Warren Buffett Says. The Real Problem Is Health Care.”
“In truth, Mr. Buffett said, a specter much more sinister than corporate taxes is looming over American businesses: health care costs. And chief executives who have been maniacally focused on seeking relief from their tax bills would be smart to shift their attention to these costs, which are swelling and swallowing their profits.” May 8, 2017, Andrew Ross Sorkin New York Times (link).
Reality
Unless U.S. health care is reformed, employer and employee costs for health care will continue to increase at rates that far exceed inflation, percent of GDP, and other standards of measurement.
“Do nothing” is not an option for employers or employees.
