Event Details
The health care debate over the last year has included criticism of the practices of health insurance companies, particularly those selling policies to individuals. Is this criticism valid? Health economist Mark V. Pauly's new book offers a realistic assessment of how much improvement can be demanded and expected.
The book discusses how individual insurance markets currently fit into the overall pattern of health insurance markets, identifies what is distinctive about current performance in that market in comparison to the proposed reforms, and suggests that taking into account the current strengths of the individual market would yield much higher net benefits. This event is cosponsored with the Hoover Institution.
