Preston\, downtown Louisville. \nWalk with them on Liberty to Jefferson Square Park (6th and Jefferson) where they will hold a rally and a vigil to remember the lives lost for lack of medical care because they were uninsured or underinsured. \nFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE \nSeptember 15\, 2015 \nBelow is the press release for the event.  \nContacts: \nBrandi Jones\, Students for a National Health Program at University of Louisville School of Medicine\, \nbrandi.jones@louisville.edu\, 317-474-1743 \nEmily Henkels\, Students for a National Health Program\, e.henkels@pnhp.org \nMark Almberg\, Physicians for a National Health Program\, (312) 782-6006\, cell: (312) 622-0996\, mark@pnhp.org \n  \nMedical students at University of Louisville to participate in National Day of Action for ‘Medicare for All’ on Oct. 1 \n  \nCiting the persistence of thousands of preventable deaths each year due to lack of health insurance\, students at more than 25 medical schools will hold teach-ins\, rallies and candlelight vigils on Oct. 1 (#TenOne) to bring national attention to ‘our failing health care system’ and the need for single-payer health reform \n  \nMEDIA ADVISORY \nWhat \nStudents for a National Health Program (SNaHP) – working in coalition with the American Medical Student Association\, WhiteCoats4BlackLives\, the Latino Medical Student Association\, Universities Allied for Essential Medicine\, and Pre-Health Dreamers – will hold teach-ins\, rallies\, and candlelight vigils to remember the millions of people in our country who remain uninsured\, underinsured and underserved by our current health care system.

The public is welcome to attend all events. \n  \nWhere \nTeach-In Session: Intersections of Chestnut St. near the medical school campus \n  \nRally and vigil: March from 500 S. Preston St. to Jefferson Square Park (6th and Jefferson) via Liberty St. \n  \nThe press is welcome to attend our rally and candlelight vigil at 6pm EST at Jefferson Square Park. \nWhy \nThe United States is the only industrialized nation in the world that does not guarantee universal health care. Unfortunately\, the Affordable Care Act is neither universal nor affordable. It will leave 30 million Americans uninsured and tens of millions underinsured\, unable to afford needed care. Tens of thousands of people will continue to die every year just because they lack health insurance. Medical problems are the leading cause of bankruptcy in the U.S.\, and research shows nearly 80 percent of those declaring bankruptcy due to medical debt had insurance at the onset of their illness. Our patients need and deserve better. \n  \nThis year marks the 50th anniversary of Medicare. As medical students\, part of our mission is to ensure that everyone who needs care gets it. One way to achieve this goal is by improving the Medicare program and expanding it to cover all Americans. \n  \nWe urge our fellow students and the public to join us for this #TenOne: Medicare-for-All National Day of Action on Thursday\, Oct. 1\, to bring national attention to our failing health care system and the need for single-payer health reform. \n  \nFor more of the thinking behind the #TenOne initiative\, including patient stories\, please read these posts on SNaHP’s official blog by medical students Vanessa Van Doren and Bryant Shuey. \n— \n  \nThis project was initiated by Students for a National Health Program (SNaHP)\, the student arm of Physicians for a National Health Program (www.pnhp.org)\, an organization of more than 19\,000 physicians\, health professionals\, medical and health professional students who advocate for universal\, single-payer\, improved Medicare for all. \n  \n  \nShare and Enjoy !Shares
