10/9/2008: Massachusetts Seeks to Expands Its Landmark Health Care Reform Law (Deloitte via BenefitsLink.com)
Excerpt: "Under the Massachusetts health care reform initiative, which became law in April 2006, 439,000 residents of the Commonwealth have become newly insured. Slated to become effective in 2009 are provisions which will impose new minimum standards on the health insurance that Massachusetts residents are required to carry under financial penalty. The Commonwealth seeks to further expand the reform by widening the group of employers potentially subject to a 'fair share contribution' to the state fund."
