Personal Option: A Vision of Healthcare That Works for You

Moderator: Misty Ruffing, Americans for Prosperity

Panelists:

Brian Balfour, John Locke Foundation

Dean Clancy, Americans for Prosperity

Duane Lester, Americans for Prosperity

Description: Everyone should have access to the high-quality healthcare they need, when they need it, at a price they can afford. Centralized approaches to health reform, like Medicaid expansion, “Medicaid for all,” or a public option, cannot give Americans what they need and deserve: affordability, consumer choice, and peace of mind. Instead, policymakers should advance a “personal option” that expands choice, reduces cost, and guarantees universal access.
