State legislatures can also take actions that affect our access to healthcare, such as: 
 
• Establish optional mandated benefits for statewide health insurance plans, such as routine cholesterol and blood pressure screenings
 
•Provide assistance to women with no health insurance
 
• Influence Medicaid eligibility and its list of approved prescription medicines
 
• Sponsor statewide public education programs
 
• Enact patients bill of rights, including full disclosure of benefits and increased access to specialist physicians
