What Is Health Care Reform?
Health care reform is a term that describes comprehensive plans that will change the way a population is able to obtain medical care. Some health care reform plans build on the current system by making changes in the tax code, adding benefits or broadening enrollment in existing programs such as Medicare, Medicaid or other plans. Other proposals, such as those that promote single-payer health care, would result in a full-scale change in the way Americans receive health care.
