Washington Health Policy Week in Review
National Health Care Co-op Venture Eyes Spring Launch

Boosters envision co-ops as a way to put consumers in charge of health plans, not profit-minded insurance executives who they say have incentives to stint on care. But skeptics see little chance that co-ops can make a dent in the insurance market. Why? Because it is dominated by companies whose enormous size gives them leverage to negotiate better deals on everything from doctor and hospital care to information technology.
