Medicare is the Leader in Health Insurance Innovation

America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) is claiming Medicare "has had virtually zero innovation since its inception." A look at the facts, however, shows that Medicare leads and private insurers follow. AHIP itself has in the past admitted that, “Private insurers will take a close look at what Medicare is doing, with an eye to adopting similar policies.” I don’t know about you, but I smell desperation in the air as insurers struggle to discredit the idea of creating a strong, national public health insurance plan option.
