The Single Payer Action Network Ohio (SPAN Ohio) originated in the early 2000s to educate the public and advocate for single-payer legislation in Ohio. It evolved into SPAN Ohio, a 501(c)4 organization, becoming the central organizing body for single-payer advocacy in the state. It later adopted Healthcare for All Ohioans, organized as a 501(c)3 organization, as its primary public-facing name to better reflect its mission. Healthcare for All Ohioans (SPAN Ohio) is a statewide coalition of organizations & individuals seeking fundamental health care reform in our state & country. Its mission is to educate & advocate for a fundamental change in our healthcare system so that everyone has affordable access to healthcare through a publicly funded, privately delivered system.
