When the One Nation Health Coalition launched we argued that Congress has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to get health reform right. That is still the case. Congress can get this done. And they must get it done.
As Congress returns this week they have the opportunity to restart the work of reform. The task has been challenging because the issue is so complex. But there has also been movement on key issues. For instance, giving states flexibility and letting the market define essential health benefits can give patients more choices at a lower cost.
