Step by Step: NH Well Positioned for National Health Reforms

New Hampshire is in an excellent position to leverage national health reforms to create an even higher quality, cost-effective health system in the state. We have made solid progress in our state on work to increase the financial transparency of the health system, promote payment reforms and quality efforts, extend the use of health information technology and expand coverage.

Health Reform Nationally and in New Hampshire

Until 2008, health care reform was haunted by the specter of Harry and Louise. Almost single handedly, a TV ad sank the Clinton Health Plan. Paid for by insurance companies, Harry and Louise warned viewers that, “Sometime in the future, the government may force us to pick a few plans designed by government bureaucrats.” The power and influence of this campaign muffled Congressional debate and, while presidents talked, all decision makers steered clear of this minefield. The result? An increasingly disjointed, dysfunctional and expensive system with 45 million Americans without health coverage.
