PNHP

Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) is a membership organization of physicians and other health professionals advocating for universal health coverage in the United States. It supports a single-payer national health program, known as improved Medicare for All, designed to provide comprehensive medical care to everyone while controlling costs. Through education, research, and public engagement, PNHP explains the single-payer approach and promotes policies it believes can address inequity, financial barriers, and administrative waste in health care.

PNHP offers resources for members, students, health professionals, policymakers, and the public. These include reports and proposals on topics such as Medicare Advantage, Medicaid managed care, prescription drugs, and physician distress; research and educational materials; webinars, slideshows, handouts, and screening events; and opportunities to participate in local chapters, student chapters, and member interest groups. The organization also supports advocacy through legislative campaigns, contacting elected officials, lobby visits, letters to the editor, and recruitment of colleagues.
