We're facing a national blood crisis — only the second one in our organization’s history. Blood donations have fallen to a four-year summer low, pushing an already strained blood supply to a critical level.
We are in dire need of donors to help patients counting on lifesaving blood for emergency surgeries, trauma care, cancer treatment, and other serious medical needs.
Just three more donors at each blood drive this summer can end this crisis and stabilize the blood supply. Please don’t wait. Book an appointment to give blood now: rdcrss.org/4x1zf0T

HSAA President & CEO @BSKaufmann joined Horizon on Arizona PBS to discuss the far-reaching negative consequences H.R. 1 will have on the healthcare of every Arizonan. Learn more.👇
azpbs.org/horizon/2025/07/ho…
The Health System Alliance of Arizona expresses profound concern and disappointment following the narrow, party-line passage of H.R. 1, "The One Big Beautiful Bill," by Congress. This legislative action includes numerous provisions that will severely destabilize Arizona’s healthcare delivery system.
This decision by Congress poses far-reaching negative consequences for the healthcare of every Arizonan. We anticipate a significant increase in the number of uninsured individuals in our state and other significant hinderances to serving our growing and aging population. Substantial damage to the economic well-being of Arizona's towns, cities, counties, and the entire state will occur.
The historic cuts to Medicaid funding within H.R. 1 will directly impact the capacity of our hospitals and health systems to deliver essential services to all Arizonans, not just those relying on Medicaid. These changes will inevitably force individuals seeking care into emergency departments instead of allowing them to access timely and appropriate care. This will lead to hospitals shouldering increased unpaid costs, which will ultimately drive up healthcare premiums for everyone.
If you've already faced difficulties finding a doctor, securing appointments with specialists, or experiencing long waits in emergency departments, these challenges are poised to worsen significantly as a direct result of Congressional action. Arizona’s healthcare providers and the State of Arizona cannot absorb the magnitude of these cuts without having to make immediate and difficult decisions.
Despite the immense challenges presented by the passage of H.R. 1, the Health System Alliance of Arizona remains steadfast in our mission to provide high-quality and accessible healthcare for all Arizonans. We will continue to advocate tirelessly for the healthcare needs of our communities.
