title: Taking California health insurance into the 21st Century.
abstract: California's system of financing and delivering health care is coming apart at the seams. High costs and large numbers of uninsured leave too many of the state's residents vulnerable to illness and exorbitant health care bills. A plan to reform the system must include: universal access, cost containment, equitable financing, a choice of systems, a unified plan, shared risk, and a greater emphasis on disease prevention.
