"Insurers don't want public
options. They don't want to compete with a government plan on an unfair playing
field, where the government plan can set lower provider rates than they can.
And they really don't want to administer it themselves and compete with
themselves."
— Chris Sloan, an associate principal at Avalere Health, talked
with AIS’s Health Plan Weekly
about the post-pandemic future of health care reform, and why he doesn’t think
public option insurance will make much headway in the fall legislative session.
