Recent surveys indicate widespread public support for reforming health care by building on our mixed public/private system. The authors present a blueprint for such reform, along with design choices and their implications, that would improve access, cost control, and quality. Requiring employers to provide coverage, or at least to help workers obtain group insurance, combined with income-based premium subsidies, expanded public programs, and backup "insurance exchanges," would make affordable coverage available to nearly everyone. Cost control and quality improvement would be achieved mainly through pressures applied on the health care system by multiple, large purchasers that wield much buying power.
