National Health Plan Outlined by Nixon Aide
A proposed national health care plan would rely on private employer insurance with caps of 1500 dollars per year per family. Employers would offer coverage, pay a 75 percent share after a transition, and a separate government program would aid low income and high risk families. Medicare would continue with expanded benefits while Medicaid would be folded into the new plan. Estimates show 5.9 billion in federal and 1 billion in state spending, though offset by program reductions. Enactment this year appears doubtful as Mills notes time is tight.
