LECG, LLC, Mercer Government Human Services Consulting, and McDonell Consulting -- health care consultants selected by the Massachusetts Legislature's Advisory Committee on Consolidated Health Care -- completed a feasibility report on consolidating and streamlining health care finance and delivery in the Commonwealth. The report provides a detailed review of the current health care finance and delivery system, and presents future models outlining various service delivery mechanisms and costs associated with expanding health care coverage. The process was aided by the collaborative efforts of health care professionals, providers, advocates and policymakers. The final report was submitted to the Legislature on December 30th, 2002, and includes an addendum featuring comments from Advisory Committee members.

Members of the public shared their views with the consultants at forums and through surveys. These surveys are no longer being received, however you may view them on-line.
