It is clear health care is out of reach for many Americans. We at Softheon believe it shouldn’t be this way. That’s why we’ve devoted ourselves to making health care affordable, accessible and plentiful for all.
We also believe health care is a human right. Join us in standing up for the equality, justice and the dignity of all patients in America and beyond.
