Access to affordable, reliable health care helps individuals, families, businesses, and communities thrive. NC Alliance for Health works to strengthen the systems and policies that help North Carolinians get the care they need to live healthy, productive lives.

We believe strong public health coverage programs, including Medicaid, play an important role in supporting healthier communities, strengthening North Carolina’s workforce, improving rural health stability, and helping families access preventive and ongoing care before health challenges become crises.

Our Health Access work focuses on practical, bipartisan solutions that improve health outcomes, support economic stability, and ensure North Carolina remains a strong place to live, work, and raise a family.

Priorities

  • Keeping NC Medicaid Strong graphicKeeping NC Medicaid Strong: We convene health care providers, community organizations, advocates, and partners across North Carolina to strengthen and sustain Medicaid so communities across the state have access to affordable, reliable health care that meets ongoing health needs.
  • Advancing Health Access and Healthy Communities: We support policies and partnerships that improve access to care while addressing the factors that shape health — including healthy food access, community well-being, and the resources families need to live healthier lives.
  • Strengthening Public Health: We support public health systems, prevention-focused policies, and community-based strategies that reduce chronic disease, improve health outcomes, and help build healthier communities across North Carolina.
