The Florida Association of Health Plans will release a series of videos during the 2017 Legislative Session to highlight how help plans help Floridians.

“As the 2017 Legislative Session gets underway and discussion and debate on the health care environment in our state continues, FAHP is launching the ‘Florida Patients Matter’ campaign and video series to showcase how health plans truly have a positive impact on the lives of their patients,” said Audrey Brown, president and CEO of FAHP.  “In the midst of debate, policy questions are often the focal point, but health plans understand that what is really of critical importance is ensuring Florida patients get the best quality health care that is both accessible and affordable.”

FAHP membership includes more than a dozen health insurance providers, though the first part of the ‘Florida Patients Matter’ campaign will feature Community Care Plan, Molina Healthcare and Sunshine Health.

Those first three videos can be viewed on the campaign’s Facebook page. FAHP has also launched a Twitter account for the campaign.

Brown said the videos “showcase health plans’ commitment to being patient-centered and how, through a comprehensive system of care, health plans are able to better serve their members.”

“We look forward to being a resource for lawmakers as they are faced with important policy questions about Florida’s health care marketplace during the 2017 Session, and are hopeful this campaign will shed light on the positive role health plans play,” she said.
