This matters since defenders of the Senate health care plan are arguing that it's just like Massachusetts' plan, so we'll all be fine. From a Kaiser Family Foundation report that Marcy Wheeler found and tweeted about:
Massachusetts have a usual source of care and most reported seeing a doctor in the previous year. However, the affordability of health care remains a barrier to receiving care for some residents. Of the total population, 21 percent went without needed care in the previous year because of cost. People with disabilities and those in fair and poor health experienced the greatest barriers to accessing care.As Markos tweeted, "so they've got insurance, not health care."
