Public Policy Institute
Tomorrow’s solutions require new thinking.
In the United States, we spend over 2.3 trillion dollars a year on health care, yet there are still over 47 million Americans without health insurance.
- The national rate of premature births is over 12 percent; 17 percent for African Americans.
- One out of every two people over the age of 65 will need long term care at some point in their lives.
- And the 'baby boom' generation is about to retire.
These are just some of the problems we’re working on at Amerigroup’s Public Policy Institute.
Our challenge is to think big: to identify, evaluate and demonstrate efficient, effective solutions that help people live healthier, more independent lives and make a positive difference in our communities and our country.
