It explores the transition from early methods of addressing illness-related costs to the rise of commercial health insurance and employer-based coverage. The establishment of government programs like Medicare and Medicaid, as well as the passage of the Affordable Care Act, are also discussed. The article introduces an alternative approach called healthcare sharing ministries, which promote solidarity and lower costs compared to traditional health insurance. However, these ministries face challenges such as vulnerability to criminal activity and mismanagement. Overall, the article highlights the limitations of the current health insurance system and the need for significant reforms to support person-level solidarity. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2024 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
