Benjamin Franklin was right- “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Prevention and wellness programs will help Americans live longer, healthier lives, and help reduce the need for more costly treatments of health conditions later in life. Affordable Health Care for America Act:
· Eliminates patient co-pays for preventive services in Medicare, Medicaid, and private plan
· Creates community-based programs that deliver prevention and wellness services
· Creates a new grant program to encourage small employers to develop employee wellness programs
· Invests in the science of prevention so that physicians know which preventive treatments work best
