What Council for Affordable Health Coverage does
Mission
The Council for Affordable Health Coverage is a broad-based alliance with a singular focus: bringing down the cost of health care for all americans.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The Council for Affordable Health Coverage works to forge a realistic consensus on policies that promote affordability by expanding coverage, reducing health costs and providing a safety net for needy patients. The organization accomplishes this through education, advocacy and policy development.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $947k to $648k (−32%).
How it's funded, over time

53% of COUNCIL FOR AFFORDABLE HEALTH COVERAGE’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (62% for the typical peer).
