The early signs of success are undeniable. First, over half of the uninsured in Massachusetts now have health insurance because of Governor Romney's reforms. This includes over 160,000 people who have purchased private health insurance in reformed markets that feature a variety of plans with cheaper premiums and more generous benefits. Second, the conservative, market-oriented reforms that Governor Romney instituted have made health insurance more affordable. Before Governor Romney's reforms, the average uninsured resident was paying $335 a month to obtain an insurance policy with a $5,000 deductible. Now, that same individual only pays $184 a month for a policy with a $2,000 deductible. Finally, residents of Massachusetts now have an avenue to purchase insurance with pre-tax dollars, leveling the playing field between the individual market and employer sponsored health plans, and bringing the monthly premium paid by the average uninsured resident in the state to as low as $115 a month.
