TY - JOUR T1 - THe health policy election AU - Carroll AE, Frakt AB Y1 - 2012/10/24 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2012.13667 JO - JAMA SP - 1633 EP - 1634 VL - 308 IS - 16 N2 - Much is at stake in the 2012 presidential election. President Barack Obama's vision and former Governor Mitt Romney's vision differ across many domains, but perhaps most starkly in the area of health policy. Fundamentally, the candidates disagree on the role of government as the guarantor of affordable access to health insurance, as evidenced by their plans for private insurance markets, Medicare, and Medicaid.
