A HEALTHY DEBATE: Health Care Reform
The United States leads the developed world in spending on health care, at nearly 15 percent of our GDP.

PROGNOSIS NEGATIVE: Health Care System in Crisis
Ten years ago, soaring health care costs prompted the Clinton administration to propose sweeping reforms to the health care system, including a substantial new role for the federal government.

In the recent economic downturn, millions lost their insurance along with their jobs, adding to the estimated 40 to 45 million Americans who have no medical insurance at all. Meanwhile the costs incurred by government and businesses to keep the rest of us covered are skyrocketing. Has the HMO model of health care that became predominant in the 1990s failed us? If so, what should replace it?
