Abstract

AS Massachusetts implements a major health reform law to expand access to affordable health insurance for hundreds of thousands of uninsured and underinsured residents, one of the greatest challenges is controlling healthcare costs. The group “Health Care For All” is to be commended for proposing a substantive set of 17 proposals to help address the cost control issue. This commentary is intended to add to the discussion of what is practical and how great an effect might be obtained by several of the proposals.
