6 feverish notions for fixing health care reform

Medical liability reform, incentivizing health insurance and revisiting pre-existing conditions are some considerations to fix health care in the U.S.

By Bill Coffin | Updated on July 17, 2014

National Underwriter has covered the healthcare transformation in this country intensively since before it was a glimmer in the Democrats’ eye, through a long and intense political battle, through the many legal and legislative challenges the Republicans threw at it afterward, and to the present, through an uneven implementation period. And during all of that time, we have tried to remain objective about how we cover an issue of such massive importance to the country, and to our readers, whom the new law affected directly (and for the most part, negatively). We often were excoriated by readers for failing to excoriate the legislation itself, as if to say that failing to attack the law is by default, supporting it.
