President Obama has lamented the fact that "the cost of health care eats up more and more of our savings each year, yet we keep delaying reform." As he and Congress consider how to make health care more affordable, they should look to the Medicare prescription drug benefit for inspiration.
By just about any measure - from overall cost to participant satisfaction - the drug benefit is working well. It's a rare example of a government initiative that has been both successful and cost-effective.
