Title: Hidden costs, value lost
Description: This book consolidates and builds on previous Committee work in order to develop estimates of the costs to our society of tolerating a large and shifting population who lack health insurance--more than 41 million in any single year. It takes the broadest societal view of the economic and social costs that our nation incurs as a result of our current health care financing policies--approaches that leaves tens of millions without coverage at any point in time and most adults under age 65 at risk over time of losing their coverage.
