In 06, Massachusetts passed a mandate individual health insurance that is very similar to that adopted by the reform of health care. The survey implies that Americans on Medicaid may be happier about their current coverage after the implementation of the reform. One of the main objectives of the 06 Act was to reduce the use of emergency rooms in hospitals because they are costly for public companies and health insurance. Yet there has been a significant drop from the use of ERs can be another implication for the future of the reform of health care.
Yet 31 percent of Medicaid recipients had a health care provider to reject coverage and 23 percent had a vendor to tell them they were not taking new patients. But these results may change over the next year because of new changes in Medicare plans.
Recently, Massachusetts changed their Medicaid plans and reduce rates for insurers to offset the increasing enrollment and budget. This will result in a more limited choice of health care providers and additional restrictions for Medicaid recipients.
Massachusetts officials now realize the need to educate patients about their coverage options and choices, especially with future changes in the current system.
