What is the Health Care Justice Protocol for Agreement?
The Health Care Justice Protocol for Agreement is a framework for Advocate Health Care, its church sponsors, SEIU, community advocacy organizations, and other signatories to work together to improve Chicagos health care delivery system for workers, patients, and the community. The purpose of the protocol is to foster a constructive and collaborative relationship between all parties to restore racial, social, and economic justice in health care based on four principles: the responsibility to provide community benefits; patients rights to health care; workers rights to a free and fair union decision process; and non-discrimination in capital investment policies.
