America’s new health care plan is taking shape, and the cost projections are coming in. Medicare’s chief actuary, Richard Foster, has written a report saying the new law will save Medicare more than $500 billion in the next decade. But he also notes those savings will be offset by expanding coverage to more than 34 million uninsured Americans. Ultimately, Foster writes, the new health care plan will cost the country more than $300 billion by 2019.
We wanted to see what you think. So we sent KALW’s Brian Pelletier out along the Caltrain corridor to see how you feel about health care in the United States. He spoke to James Fitzgerald, Alex Meinke and Ferose Bassier.
