Wisconsin Health Plan Follow-up...Chapter Two

Another interesting tidbit that was included in the Lewin Study but wasn’t highlighted is this:

Of the some 2.958 million persons currently receiving health insurance benefits through an employer in Wisconsin, the cost for the Wisconsin Health Plan (WHP) will be less than the current costs for only 736,000 persons.

That means that the WHP, a lesser plan, will cost more for the other 2.222 million persons.

Is that not significant enough to warrant mention rather than to be buried on page 49?

How many other nasty surprises are yet to be found?

Is this really what Wisconsin citizens desire?
