A Healthier NC™ What is “A Healthier NC”? A Healthier NC is today’s Good Health Plan. In 1945, North Carolina Governor Mel Broughton spearheaded a statewide effort designed to relieve the acute shortage of doctors and nurses in North Carolina and improve the health of North Carolinians. Passing legislation to fund the effort required public support, so state leaders organized a public relations campaign for what they called The Good Health Plan. This campaign funded badly needed hospitals in underserved rural areas, adding 7,200 more hospital beds. It also served as a catalyst for the establishment of the first four-year, state- supported medical school and teaching hospital at UNC. Fast forward 60 years and North Carolina still ranks among the bottom third in state health rankings. Approximately 28 percent of our adult population is obese, 10 percent of our adult population is diabetic. North Carolina also ranks 11 th in the nation for childhood obesity, a disturbing indicator of future chronic disease. A Healthier NC was created with the purpose of addressing these and other NC health challenges as the Campaign for Good Health did in Everyone plays a role in shaping A Healthier NC

A Healthier NC™ The purpose of A Healthier NC is to promote good health choices and available health care resources that foster healthier, happier lives and help control cost of health care. A Healthier NC is a statewide public health education campaign initiated by NC SPIN, North Carolina Academy of Family Physicians, North Carolina Medical Society and other leading health care organizations. The intent of the campaign is to raise awareness and engage citizens around four key themes: -What does healthy mean? -What’s my responsibility for improved health? -What are smarter ways to access health care? -Get healthy with the A Healthier NC Challenge!
