A Century Foundation Project Following Important Trends, New Ideas, and Noteworthy Research in Health Care Policy.
|
Conventional wisdom has long held that fundamental reform of the American health care system is unlikely to occur. Yet a consensus that the existing system is dysfunctional is gaining strength among experts, lawmakers, employers, and the public at large. This growing consensus may generate support for the transformation of U.S. health care financing and delivery. The growing human and financial costs of our current system guarantee that health care will remain at the forefront of U.S. politics. Health Policy Watch seeks to provide experts and non-experts alike with a portal on these developing debates on health policy and on ideas for achieving universal coverage. |
