Health Care Reform - Adverse Selection

A new report released by the Rockefeller Institute of Government, the public policy research arm of the State University of New York (SUNY), examines the difficulties states encounter with "adverse selection" in their efforts to broaden coverage. Courtney Burke of the Rockefeller Institute and Katherine Swartz of the Harvard School of Public Health discuss a number of possible strategies, including an individual mandate, creation of an insurance exchange, and a merger of the small group and individual markets.
