Advocacy - Find a Way
Federal Advocacy at Trinity Health
“Trinity Health will be characterized by a demonstrated commitment to persons who are poor and underserved… working to assure access, recognition of health as a basic social right, and effective advocacy.”
-Trinity Health Founding Principles, 2000
As a Catholic health ministry, we are called both to serve and to transform. We serve people and communities in need, especially the poor and underserved. We also seek to transform systems of care and policies to create justice for all. Advocacy at Trinity Health supports both of these foundational elements of our faith-based mission. We advocate for policies that support our capacity to serve others (e.g., Medicare payments). We also advocate for fundamental change (to transform) by seeking access to healthcare for all.
The advocacy priorities for this year are as follows:
1. Secure coverage and access for all
2. Achieve better and more efficient care (enabled by HIT)
3. Safeguard hospital capacity to improve community and economic health
