Revisions
[edit]I am planning to make some corrections and additions, including information from more recent academic publications related to this research study. I have written a policy brief on the Oregon Health Insurance Experiment for a research center at MIT and would be happy to discuss the changes here.

Perhaps we can reference publications that show how access to insurance will likely increase rates of preventative services. More access to health insurance will help decrease health disparities. With insurance, people are able to receive the right recommendations for preventative services. One article shows data from four study groups that measured utilization patterns, where it “adds to the previous studies reporting that even short coverage gaps can have significant effects on access to care and utilization” (645)[1]. It found that utilization of primary care helped improve health and management of chronic conditions. Let me know what you guys think. Jjgotshwifty (talk) 03:13, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
