Health Insurance

IntroductionAlthough the majority of Americans with health insurance obtain their coverage through group health plans offered through their employers, many individuals obtain their coverage through the nongroup (or individual) insurance market.

The study provides public programs, employers and private insurers with effective best practices used in Medicare, Medicaid, SCHIP, and the private insurance market to improve participation in health insurance coverage.

The President has proposed, and at least one bill has been introduced in Congress, to change federal law that prevents health insurance from being offered nationally as opposed to in only state-specific markets.
