A call for action. The Pepper Commission's blueprint for health care reform.

After a year of deliberation and investigation, the Pepper Commission recommended action to ensure that all Americans would have health insurance protection in an efficient, effective health care system. Because it believes that action is urgent, the commission would build universal coverage by securing, improving, and extending the combination of job-based and public coverage we now have. Reform would entail the following elements: a combination of incentives and requirements that would guarantee all workers (with their nonworking dependents) insurance coverage through their jobs; replacement of Medicaid with a new federal program that would cover all those not covered through the workplace and workers whose employers find public coverage more affordable; guaranteed affordable coverage for employers--through reform of private insurance, tax credits for small employers, and the opportunity to purchase public coverage; a minimum benefit standard for private and public plans that would cover preventive and primary services as well as catastrophic care and would include cost sharing, subject to ability to pay; and a combination of public and private sector initiatives to promote quality and contain costs.
