You Deserve Better
Affordable, High-Quality Health Care for Everyone
All In, All Insured
Who We Are
We are a diverse group of individuals passionate about driving change in insurance coverage to make health care more equitable, accessible, and cost-effective, so everyone can get the care they need, regardless of employment.
Our Mission
To educate, inspire, and mobilize the public to advocate for a universally accessible, affordable, equitable, and high-quality health care system.
Our Vision
Everyone living in the U.S. can receive high-quality health care without barriers of cost, access, employment status, or discrimination.
Why Do We Need Change?
We believe cost should not be a barrier to meeting health care needs. We want you to use less of your hard-earned money for health care, so you have more to spend on the things that matter most, such as your family.
Did You Know?
The U.S. has the highest health care costs per person of any developed nation. (1)

Who Is Asclepius?
Asclepius is the Greek god of medicine and healing.
Depicted with the symbol of the rod and snake, Asclepius represents health care and the healing arts.
Our Purpose
Our goal is to raise awareness and encourage discussion for change to make health care coverage a reality for all.
We recognize that health equity is a social justice issue. We commit to work towards a system where all barriers that contribute to health care disparities are eliminated. We stand with those who have been discriminated against, past and present, and pledge to use our time, talent, and resources to effect system change within the health care setting.
We Believe:
- Where you live, where you work, and how much you earn should not determine whether or not you have health care
- Affordable, high-quality health care should be available to everyone, irrespective of race, gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, ableness, or socio-economic status
- You have a right to health care
- Health care decisions should be made between patients and their health care provider
