This paper proposes a National Goal and federal leadership to make continuing health care in institutions, homes and communities universally accessible, affordable and meeting acceptable standards.
A new National Health Accord is recommended, bringing federal contributions to fifty percent of national health care costs which would also permit funding for pharmacare and mental health services. We welcome discussion and comments on the paper.
