Quote of the Day

A low-cost, all-inclusive benefit package is just “happy talk. You can’t have it both ways. The idea of a low-cost essential-benefits package is like a unicorn. It doesn’t exist….Everybody’s complaining about the cost, so the goal was to develop an essential plan: only the things that people need. [But] it’s impossible to do that, because everybody thinks their claim is the most important.”
