Mandating drug coverage makes no sense

February 9, 2008

Charlie Baker agrees with what I said yesterday about mandates bloating the affordability of health insurance:

The whole point behind health care reform was to expand options, make plan designs more affordable, get people enrolled, and take financial pressure off of hospitals that provide free care to people without coverage. Acting as the only state in the nation that mandates drug coverage seems to be a big step in the wrong direction.
