HEALTH REFORM...THE FIRST 18 MONTHS
Community Catalyst summarizes a report the group released yesterday...
Community Catalyst, a national consumer health advocacy organization, has released an analysis of the first year-and-a-half of Massachusetts’ comprehensive health reform package. The report finds early success in the program due to robust enrollment, largely in subsidized programs for people with the lowest incomes. However, the study also stresses that certain uncertainties and challenges remain in future implementation phases for the law, particularly regarding the individual mandate and long-term financing of reform.
