Editorial: CDC Study Shows Need for Health Reform Law
A recent CDC survey finding that 20% of U.S. families are struggling to pay medical bills reveals that the U.S. must continue efforts to implement the federal health reform law, a San Jose Mercury News editorial argues. According to the editorial, the reform law is "imperfect," but "at least California has a plan in place to significantly reduce the number of uninsured and to begin lowering costs." The editorial concludes, "That's more than the states fighting so hard to overturn" the law can say.
