Massachusetts Universal Healthcare Plan Gaining Momentum

Published by Dafé August 21st, 2008 in Dafé’s Café - Daily Dose of Medical News and MyDocHub.

See graph below on how effective Massachusetts bold plan to extend health insurance to all its residents has been. A new report from the Division of Health Care Finance and Policy, shows that “since the program’s launch in June 2006, 439,000 more people have enrolled in health insurance, and nearly half of them signed up for private insurance not funded by taxpayers.”

Massachusetts Healthcare Plan

In fact, roughly 75 percent of previously uninsured Massachusetts residents now have medical coverage under the state’s landmark campaign. Now, I am waiting for other states to follow Massachusetts in this bold plan that seems to be working.

    Did you see the Bunk study stating 2/3 of doctors in America want National Health Care. The doctors who did this study also conducted one in 2002 and found that the majority of doctors did not want national health care, the problem with this is that the 2 question surveys drastically differ in there 2nd question. I found this article, 60% of Physicians Surveyed Oppose Switching to a National Health Care Plan, It’s worth a read.
