The Health Care Choice Act: Eliminating Barriers to Personal

While interstate commerce in goods and services is routine invirtually every other area of the national economy, such as bankingand financial services, it is largely frustrated in the health caresector by law and government regulation. For individuals andfamilies, this means that they are not able to secure the kind ofcoverage they want at the prices they wish to pay. The Health CareChoice Act (H.R. 2355 and S.1015), sponsored by Representative JohnShadegg (R-AZ) and Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC), would amend currentlaw to allow for interstate commerce in health insurance planswhile preserving states' primary responsibility for the regulationof health insurance.
