Conservatives for Patients' Rights (CPR) is a political advocacy group in the United States that was founded in 2009 by Rick Scott, a former healthcare executive and Governor of Florida. The organization was established to oppose the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare.
Mission[edit]
The mission of Conservatives for Patients' Rights is to promote free-market principles in the healthcare system and to advocate for patient choice and individual responsibility. The group supports healthcare reform that emphasizes competition, transparency, and personal responsibility.
Activities[edit]
CPR gained national attention through its extensive media campaign against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The organization produced and aired numerous television advertisements, radio spots, and online content to highlight its opposition to the proposed legislation. These campaigns often featured testimonials from patients and healthcare professionals who expressed concerns about the potential impact of the law on patient care and healthcare costs.
Leadership[edit]
The founder and president of Conservatives for Patients' Rights is Rick Scott. Before founding CPR, Scott was the CEO of Columbia/HCA, a large healthcare company. His leadership and financial backing were instrumental in the establishment and operations of the organization.
Controversies[edit]
CPR has been the subject of controversy due to its aggressive tactics and the background of its founder. Critics have argued that the group's campaigns have been misleading and have contributed to the polarization of the healthcare reform debate. Additionally, Rick Scott's tenure at Columbia/HCA was marred by a major Medicare fraud scandal, which has been a point of contention for opponents of CPR.
