Massachusetts' Commonwealth Connector health reforms have reduced the state's uninsured population to less than 3% of residents, the lowest among all states. But a recent survey found an uptick last fall in adults reporting difficulty accessing certain types of care.

To paraphrase Josef Biden, "Nobody could've guessed it would be this bad."

Guess I need to clean my glasses... I was reading the title of this thread as: "Access-to-care problems are resurfacing in Mars"

So what if there’s an uptick in people reporting difficulty getting health care?

Is the state government reporting any trouble getting these people money??? That’s all that counts.

I will never understand how a state can love Ted Kennedy. He is everything you wouldn’t want to be. Maybe they are just to close to the trees to see the forest. We have asked many people over the years who are from MA and not one of them can come up with an explanation period except they really get mad if you simply ask them why they like him.

Now the media will have to come clean, reboot the term “health care” to “health care coverage.”

With both socialized medicine and gay marriage,
Romney imposed both by his dictatorship.
Then, he ran against what he did as Pres. candidate.

Romney, the pretend governor (hiding somewhere).

This whole notion of a private-public partnership in the delivery of health care was never feasible from the start. As soon as a public entity starts to compete with a private insurance company they will swallow up market share due to the fact they will charge less (no profit motive) and can manipulate the rules to ensure more membership, i.e. have private industry start dumping employees into public plans to lower their bottom lines. Once government accomplishes this the private insurers will go by the way side for all but the super rich who could afford any premium. That leaves the rest of us at the whims of a federal bureaucracy who will inevitably start to ration care in an attempt to control costs.

Socialism, isn’t it wonderful?

... and when “mandated insurance” doesn’t work, and it won’t, the government’s response will next be to “mandate care” from the doctors. This won’t work either, but the government won’t look at it as a problem of bad legislation, but too little legislation. This cycle of “treatment” will continue until the patient, in this case the country, dies.
