Affordable Health Care Solutions Coalition Concept

• Address the issue of the “working uninsured” by aggregating large groups of employees not receiving a health care benefit subsidy from a broad cross-section of American industry • Create more viable individual health care market • Promote dissemination of provider efficiency and effectiveness data

Focus on uninsured populations in large corporations, specifically —

• Full-time, part-time, temps without coverage • Contract workers, independent agents, consultants • Pre-Medicare retirees 5

Affordable Health Care Solutions Coalition Goals

• Fully insured • No required direct employer subsidy • Guaranteed issue (i.e., no medical questions or underwriting) • National solution • Range of options and price points significantly better than current individual health insurance market, including comprehensive major medical coverage • Provider cost and quality transparency 6
