Abstract:
The Heritage Consumer Choice Health Plan shows how to establish true open market competition and incentives. It would consequently solve America’s health care problems, slashing runaway costs increases, while achieving universal coverage. It would accomplish this precisely through expanding consumer choice and control, and market competition, maximizing along the way the access to and quality of care that Americans desire. Managed competition, by contrast, would be a seriously harmful, heavily restrictive failure.
