This bill proposes the establishment of the Arizona HEALTH program within the Arizona health care cost containment system, which would provide comprehensive health benefit coverage to all residents who enroll. Key definitions are introduced, including terms such as "enrollee," "health care provider," and "participating provider." The program would not require enrollees to pay premiums or other charges, and it allows residents the option to purchase private health insurance if they choose not to enroll. Additionally, a board of trustees is created to oversee the program, consisting of various appointed members, including representatives from health care advocacy organizations and professional health care groups.

The bill also outlines the development of a benefit coverage plan that includes a range of health care services and mandates the implementation of a payroll tax to fund the program. This tax would apply to all residents, with a progressive structure based on income, and specific exemptions for lower-income earners and Medicare enrollees. The administration is tasked with adopting rules for the program, including provider qualifications and payment methodologies, while ensuring that no contracts are made with health insurers to manage services. The act is titled the "End of Privatization of Health Care Act."
