There is no sector of our economy where the hand of government is more evident than in health care. Half of what our nation spends on health care is public money, and this expansion of government involvement comes at the expense of patient control. The best health care system is consumer-driven, not government-driven.
ALEC’s Health and Human Services Task Force has been a national leader in promoting free-market, pro-patient health care reforms at the state level. Since 2005, 38 states have enacted model legislation developed by ALEC’s HHS Task Force.
