Establishes a universal, comprehensive, affordable single-payer health care insurance program in Rhode Island.

This bill establishes the Rhode Island Comprehensive Health Insurance Program (RICHIP) as a single-payer health care insurance program. It aims to replace the current multi-payer system with a more economical and efficient system, funded by consolidating government and private payments into a single fund. The program will cover all Rhode Islanders, including those currently uninsured or underinsured, and will be paid for by replacing health insurance premiums, co-pays, deductibles, and costs with progressive contributions.
