Six prescriptions for change: Our survey shows what Americans demand of health reform.(HEALTH CARE)(Survey)
Americans have lost confidence in the U.S. healthcare system and yearn for reforms that will free them from worry about losing coverage if their circumstances change or if they fall ill.
Our new national survey plumbs people's opinions about those elements they consider essential in a reformed system.
Among the 1,200 Americans age 18 and older who responded to the November 2007 telephone poll, more than 80 percent said that a reformed system should guarantee the following:
* Coverage for all uninsured children.
* Protection against financial ruin due to a major illness or accident.
* The ability to obtain coverage regardless of a pre-existing condition.
* Coverage that continues even when people are laid off, changing jobs, or starting their own business.
