New Polling: When It Comes to Health Insurance Coverage, What Most Concerns You?
This morning, PhRMA joined Morning Consult to host a panel of experts discussing where health care coverage stands now and where we need to go. The conversation was spurred by a recent poll Morning Consult produced on behalf of PhRMA that asked 1,908 registered voters their thoughts about health coverage. Event participants engaged online through Twitter chat using the hashtag #CoverageInYear2, and some highlights from the conversation are below:

Panelists shared stories about the challenges patients are facing now including surprising out-of-pocket costs or high coinsurance when they try to access health care services and treatments.
