GAHA

The Great American Health Alliance

The Great American Health Alliance is a national effort to move healthcare in a new direction. From a system that reacts to illness… To one that invests in health, prevention, and personal choice. GAHA is built around a simple idea: Healthcare should work for the patient — not the system.

Fixing Healthcare Starts with Putting You Back in Control

Vic Mellor is a founding member of the Great American Health Alliance (GAHA), helping lead a real plan to lower costs, expand access, and restore control to the American people.

The Healthcare Crisis by the Numbers

of Americans say the system is built around “sick care” instead of keeping people healthy

The average annual family health insurance premium has risen from $14,812 in 2010 to $26,993 today

Too many Rhode Island families are paying hundreds of dollars every month for coverage that still leaves them with massive out-of-pocket costs

A Smarter Approach to Healthcare

GAHA supports policies that:

  • Lower costs for families
  • Increase transparency across the system
  • Expand access to personalized care
  • Give individuals control over their healthcare decisions and dollars
  • Reduce the influence of insurance companies and middlemen

The Four Pillars of Reform

Personal Financial Control

  • Expand Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)
  • Allow direct control over healthcare spending
  • Support prevention and essential care

Transparency

  • Require clear, upfront pricing
  • End surprise medical bills
  • Allow patients to compare costs before care

Affordability

  • Lower prescription drug prices
  • Reform pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs)
  • Eliminate unnecessary cost drivers in the system

Health Control

  • Expand access to:
    • Nutrition
    • Fitness
    • Preventative care
  • Reward proactive health instead of reactive treatment

The Bottom Line

  • This is about putting you back in charge.
  • Your healthcare
  • Your money
  • Your choices
  • That’s the future Vic Mellor is working to build.

Why This Matters

Too many families are paying more while getting less.

Healthcare has become:

  • More expensive
  • Less transparent
  • Harder to navigate

That’s not sustainable — and it’s not acceptable.

What It Means for Rhode Island

Rhode Islanders are already feeling the strain of a broken system.

  • Families are being squeezed by rising premiums and out-of-pocket costs
  • Hospitals are under pressure
  • Patients have fewer affordable options and less control

Vic Mellor is fighting to bring real healthcare reform to Rhode Island — reform that puts patients first instead of the system first.
