Christina’s healthcare agenda is centered on the principle that quality healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Her vision for healthcare reform is anchored in the pursuit of universal healthcare coverage. 

This means enacting policies that ensure all Californians and Americans have access to the medical services they need without facing financial ruin. To tackle the escalating healthcare costs, Christina is committed to implementing cost reduction measures, focusing on prescription drugs, medical procedures, and hospital stays, thereby making healthcare more affordable for everyone.

In addressing the critical shortage of healthcare professionals, her policy includes significant investment in education and training programs for doctors, nurses, and allied health workers. This will not only improve the quality of care but also ensure that our healthcare system can meet the growing demands of our population.

Mental health and addiction services are integral parts of comprehensive healthcare. Christina’s approach involves expanding these services and seamlessly integrating them into standard healthcare to provide holistic treatment to individuals. Additionally, she strongly advocates for preventive care and wellness programs that emphasize healthy living and early disease detection, which are key to reducing long-term healthcare costs and improving health outcomes.

Recognizing the transformative power of technology in healthcare, Christina supports the adoption of telemedicine, electronic health records, and AI-driven tools to enhance healthcare efficiency and patient care. 

Lastly, healthcare equity is a cornerstone of her policy. It’s essential to address the disparities in healthcare access and quality, ensuring that every community, especially the underserved and minority groups, have equitable access to healthcare services. This comprehensive policy framework is designed to create a more efficient, equitable, and high-quality healthcare system for all Californians and Americans.
