Healthy Children and Families


Goal 3: North Carolinians will have access to health care.

Lack of access to health care carries a high price tag. People avoid or are unable to obtain preventative services. Delays in treatment result in later diagnoses when illnesses are more difficult and more expensive to treat. Those high costs in turn get passed along to the public purse and to private individuals and companies with the ability to pay, through an indirect process called cost-shifting.
