Voter Perspective Spotlight
What does navigating our health care system look and feel like for real people living in Georgia?
As part of the research featured in our latest Issue Brief, Perspectives on Health and the Health Care System: Views of Likely Voters in Georgia, we conducted focus groups with voters across Georgia to better understand how people view health and the health care system and how these experiences shape their lives.
The quotes below offer a glimpse into the focus group conversations, highlighting participants’ experiences, perspectives, challenges, and hopes for the future.
These individual perspectives reveal how health care is experienced beyond the data, from finding care for themselves and their families to navigating the realities of cost, access, and quality.
When talking about the cost of care:
When talking about access to providers:
When talking about health care in rural Georgia:
When talking about how the system is working for them:
When talking about the role of state leaders in fixing what’s broken:
When talking about opportunities for change:
These are just some of the views shared by focus group participants earlier this year. These insights and the findings from the statewide poll give a glimpse into the realities of what Georgians are facing.
And how they want things to improve.
