In Excellent Health

Defends both the quality of and access to medical care in the United States compared to numerous countries with nationalized systems often held up as models for health system reforms. Atlas suggests a reform plan designed to maintain choice, access, and facilitate competition. The proposal offers a series of improvements in the three critical areas of the health care puzzle, tax structure, private insurance markets, and government health insurance programs, which will reduce health costs and maintain essential support for America's most vulnerable citizens, seniors and low-income families, without jeopardizing the health care quality and access in the United States.
