CT still earns a C+ on reform

Connecticut health care thought leaders give our state a C+ on health reform again this winter; grades have varied between C and C+ over the last year. Connecticut also again earned a C+ for effort in this survey. Among issue areas only Medicaid improved since last Fall. Five areas lost ground particularly health information technology and public education. The overwhelming suggestion to improve progress is to engage consumers in policymaking and improve the CT Health Insurance Exchange.
