In New England Journal perspective, Fuchs argues a government health insurance company doesn't fix the health care crisis

CHP/PCOR Announcement

Stanford Health Policy core faculty member Victor Fuchs writes that a government-sponsored insurance company wouldn't make a dent in health care's three biggest problem areas-- high numbers of uninsured, rising costs and lapses in quality care. Rather, he pens in the New England Journal of Medicine perspective "The Proposed Government Health Insurance Company -- No Substitute for Real Reform," reform must be focused on financing, organization, and delivery of care.
