Colorado CareYES pursues single payer on 2016 ballot
In Denver a staged ambulance delivery of petition boxes marked the push by Colorado CareYES to qualify a single payer health plan for the 2016 ballot. The plan would tax employers 7 percent, workers 3 percent, and self-employed up to 10 percent to fund universal coverage with private options allowed. Supporters argue it would expand access and reduce out of pocket costs while opponents fear the $25 billion price tag.
