Emory University is out with a new survey asking what Americans want out of their health care system.
The AJC reports the university partnered with Gallup to conduct self administered web interviews that ended with more than 2,000 respondents. The top priorities… improving health care access and affordability, reducing chronic disease, safe food and water and then protecting the safety net with support like Medicare, Medicaid, and free clinics. A majority of respondents said the nation has lost ground in the opioid epidemic. Half said the same about mental health nationwide. Nearly half (47%) believed the U.S. has lost ground with healthy dieting and lifestyles.
