Briefings

Former state health leaders recommend three critical actions for 21 new governors starting January 1, 2026: hiring specialized operators, identifying existing health system issues, and establishing a targeted agenda. This guidance addresses the budgetary significance of health and its role in family affordability, though specific implementation timelines and measurable outcomes remain unverified.

Key points

• New governors must hire operators to manage state health systems and address the largest budget line item.
• Governors need to identify existing health system problems before setting an agenda to improve well-being.

Context

Health is the largest budget line item and primary driver of affordability for American families. New governors stepping into roles on Jan 1, 2026, must act to harness state government power for health improvement.
