The role of the states in a restructured health care system dominated the summer meeting of the National Governors Association here this weekend - with bipartisan animosity

Decisions about forgoing care because of the cost for the long-term uninsured have been a way of life, "but for a sizable group, being without a job and insurance is a new, deeply distressing condition," The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports. "About half of those are the long-term uninsured, including those with jobs that simply don"t offer insurance, said Len Nichols, a health economist who directs the health policy program for the New America Foundation.
"They"re literally an underclass." The number of Americans who went through 2008 without insurance probably won"t be available until August or September, but Nichols estimated that the 45.7 million figure has now risen "well into the 50s."" ""I would say in general, I"ve seen a huge number of people who have lost their medical insurance who are not coming in for a lot of conditions they would have in the past," said Fred DeBoe, a family doctor for 26 years
who works with the Aurora Medical Group.
