The Coalition to Advance Healthcare Reform (CAHR) is an active coalition of more than 50 employers and business leaders formed in May 2007 committed to moving healthcare reform forward at both the state and federal level. Our goal is to advance meaningful, market-based solutions to our nation’s healthcare crisis. Members of CAHR believe there are five core elements essential to any meaningful reform including:


  • Market-Based Healthcare System
  • Universal Coverage with Individual Responsibility
  • Financial Assistance  for Low-Income Individuals
  • Healthier Behavior and Incentives
  • Equal Tax Treatment
