Healthcare

Quality, affordable health care is the hallmark of any great society. I believe the current "Connector" solution in Massachusetts is a step in the right direction, but there is much more work to be done. A crucial component of health care is affordability and we must through incentives, legislation and pressure work with providers and insurers to reduce costs and improve service.

Health care costs are continuing to break local and state budgets and we must do more to control these costs. Currently Senate President Murray has proposed new legislation that I support (SB 2660) to help contain these costs. SB 2660 has been passed in the Senate and is now before the committee on House Ways and Means.
