Indecent Coverage? Protecting the Goals of Health Insurance from the Impact of Co-Payments
Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics 15 (1):107-113 (2006)
Abstract
As pressures increase to contain growing healthcare expenditures, there is currently a prominent rise in the shift of healthcare costs to patients in the form of deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance. Rising co-payments are part of a larger picture of increasing overall out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures. From 1990 to 2000, per capita out-of-pocket payments for healthcare reached $707 in the United States, and doubled in several European countries with universal health insurance, reaching $396 in Denmark, $290 in Germany, and $466 in Italy in 2000.DOI
