(2006-08-31) Hubbard Health Care Reforms

Glenn Hubbard makes 5 HealthCare policy recommendations. Make individual health spends (on care or Health Insurance) just as deductible as employer spends; expand Health Savings Account-s; have tax-income credits for low-income families (since they won't benefit from the other reforms). And three other areas where health care Market-s are not functioning effectively: information (about provider quality - Reputation Management), anticompetitive behavior (Trade Guild-s) and medical Malpractice.
