Welcome to Consumers for Affordable Health Care Coalition
Advocating the right to health care for every man, woman, and child.

We believe that every person in the state of Maine should have access to high quality health care at a cost they can afford. Since 1988, the Consumers for Affordable Health Care Coalition has been promoting this message in the legislature and throughout the state. With the support of our over 100 members, representing thousands of health care consumers, we have successfully fought for the interests of Maine consumers, enacting laws to expand access to health care while ensuring quality.

Consumers For Affordable Health Care is powerless without the support of health care consumers like YOU! Find out how you can become a full member of Maine's largest consumer coalition!
