ILC Plan Advances Iowa Health Reform Efforts
The Iowa Legislative Consortium proposes an employer based reform with government regulation to cover health costs. It suggests a minimum 80 percent medical cost coverage for individuals and 60 percent for families with a 200 deductible and a 5 percent penalty for noncompliance. The plan aims to reduce cost shifting and create the Iowa Health Commission to set annual spending targets. Public comments are solicited this spring and summer ahead of a legislative push next year.
