State legislators calling for more, less in pursuit of universal access to care.
In what may be partly the result of election-year politics, state legislators are following somewhat schizophrenic paths in pursuit of universal access to healthcare. While more states are expected to allow "bare bones" health coverage, thus lowering premiums and making insurance more affordable, lawmakers also continue adding to the mandated benefits many say boost costs and increase the uninsured.
