Addressing Health Care Costs
The final articles in USA Today’s health care cost series ran today. They include:
- Few Solutions on Horizon as Health Costs Rise, which explains some of the reasons for increased health care costs and described the solutions bandied about by state and federal lawmakers.
- Don’t Take It Lying Down If Your Insurer Refuses to Pay with tips on how to appeal insurance decisions, which, an expert in the article claims, are successful in about 70% of cases.

The Kaiser Foundation’s daily report tipped me off to the USA Today series. Kasier’s summaries of the articles are available at:
