Health Insurance Blog

There has been a considerable amount of discussion surrounding the health care proposals from presidential candidates Obama & McCain, however state-level health care plans haven’t received much attention.

Arizona in particular has a health care initiative on the ballot called Arizona Proposition 101.  If this proposition were to pass, the state of Arizona would be blocked from enacting a universal health care plan.  Essentially it would block Arizona from moving towards a health care platform like the one that is currently in place in Massachusetts, which requires all residents to purchase health insurance or pay a fine.  In addition, if Proposition 101 passes it will serve as a basis for a legal challenge should the federal government move towards a national health insurance mandate.
