Health Care for AmericaReports
The United States is the only country in the developed world that does not guarantee access to health care as a right of citizenship. Ironically, the United States spends more as a share of its economy on health care than any other nation, yet all this spending has failed to buy Americans health security. Jacob Hacker's Health Care for America plan would extend coverage to all Americans while creating an effective framework for controlling medical costs and improving health care provision.
