What is Prop 44?

Proposition 44 is a California ballot measure that would impose new financial requirements and penalties on community health centers and clinics, which would limit resources for patient care and clinics’ ability to meet community needs.

What’s at stake?

Access to Care

Proposition 44 could put essential health care services at risk, affecting the providers and programs Californians rely on to access care.

California’s Health Safety Net

At a time when California’s health and social service safety net is already navigating significant changes, additional disruptions could place greater pressure on providers and the communities they serve.

Patients & Communities

Changes to available services can have consequences for patients—particularly those who already experience barriers to accessing affordable, timely, and culturally responsive care.

For CCHI, this issue is about protecting access to care.‍ ‍

For nearly two decades, our members have worked across California to help individuals and families enroll in coverage, navigate the health care system, and connect with the services they need.

We oppose Proposition 44 because we believe California should strengthen, not jeopardize, the systems that make that care possible.
