NEW: New York City’s first-in-the-nation Office of Healthcare Accountability (OHA) just released a new report showing how hospital consolidation drives up healthcare costs for working New Yorkers. DC 37 fought hard for the creation of this office, and we thank Speaker Julie Menin for fighting alongside us to bring down the cost of healthcare!

"As we prepare to negotiate the citywide economic agreement for city workers, we want to ensure more money goes back into our members' pockets than in the pockets of hospital CEOs," said Henry Garrido, Executive Director of District Council 37 AFSCME. "Every dollar counts for New Yorkers, and the reports generated by the Office of Healthcare Accountability have been instrumental in recent negotiations with certain hospital systems when benchmarking costs for individual services.”

OHA’s report makes it clear that New York State must act now to stop rising healthcare costs. That's why DC 37, 32BJ SEIU, and the Coalition for Affordable Hospitals support the Fair Pricing Act in Albany to make sure everyday New Yorkers pay routine prices for routine services, no matter where you receive your care.
