Healthy Wisconsin is the new, comprehensive health care reform plan introduced in the Senate.  Healthy Wisconsin
will for the first time guarantee that all Wisconsinites get the same
high quality health care that our state legislators have had for years,
while being affordable for Wisconsin families. 

• You will be able to choose your own doctor
• You are guaranteed high quality, affordable health care
• Pre-existing conditions and chronic disease management are covered
• Preventive care is free for adults and children
• You won't lose your coverage if you lose your job, change jobs, or start your own business

Healthy Wisconsin
preserves what is good about the health care system while making it
affordable for everyone.  We have some of the best doctors and
hospitals in the world, and it is just not right that our friends and
neighbors are denied access because of the high cost of insurance.  Healthy Wisconsin is affordable, and allows you and your doctor to make your health care decisions, not some insurance company.
