ADVISORY FOR TOMORROW, January 14th
Albuquerque - For too many New Mexicans, healthcare has become inaccessible and unaffordable. New Mexicans wait for appointments while medical corporations and insurance companies prioritize profit to take back to their out of state headquarters and shareholders. Tomorrow, New Mexico Safety Over Profit (NMSOP), state leaders, Legislators, providers and patients will share real stories, legislative solutions, and a vision for putting patients and providers before profits.
This event will highlight the devastating effects of profit-driven healthcare systems, burning out healthcare providers and harming families. Hear firsthand accounts from patients, bold legislative proposals from Legislators, and real solutions that prioritize patient care, improve access, and protect healthcare providers. We're fighting for a healthcare system that works for all New Mexicans.
