Mathematica to Release Preliminary Report on Health Care Reform Models on 5/16

From Health Action New Mexico: At the Health Coverage for New Mexicans Committee on April 26, 2007, Mathematica Policy Research provided their methodology for comparing the cost of three models of health care reform with the current system of health care delivery in NM. They explained how they obtained data for NM and the numbers that they will be using for the study. Surprisingly they separated out people who were insured only part of the year (46 %) and said we had an unusually high rate of partially uninsured. The power point presentation is on our web site at www.healthactionnm.org. Two ways to access documents: 1) Click on Mathematica Study on Health Care Reform under Health Action New Mexico ALERTS and follow links or 2) Click on Health Care for All link.

At the next meeting of Health Coverage for New Mexicans Committee, Mathematica will present the preliminary report and the financial comparisons of the three health care models:

The April meeting took the whole day. This is a critical report that may affect what everybody in New Mexico pays for health care for the rest of our lives. If you can possibly attend you must. The legislators need to know that a LOT of people are VERY interested. We need to stack the hearing for this meeting and especially for the June meeting.

Sink or swim! Somebody has to start swiming, come and learn everything that you can about the healhtcare financing options that the state is considering.
