Governors’ Bipartisan Health Reform Network Health Reform Priorities

The National Governors Association released shared priorities from its bipartisan forum on strengthening private health insurance, Medicaid, and public health. The priorities include fully funding the cost-sharing reductions for the health insurance marketplaces through calendar year 2018. They also call for more flexibility in selecting or creating essential health benefits benchmark plans, while retaining a default benchmark for states that do not select one.
