Maryland county’s health plan would require legislation
Washington Post, February 7, 2008
A plan to provide access to healthcare for an estimated 20,000 uninsured residents in Howard County, MD, requires state legislation because of its unusual structure. If the legislation is approved by the Maryland General Assembly, the program will not begin until Oct. 1, 2008, to give state officials time to write regulations governing the "Healthy Howard" program.
