Two big questions for Democrats who support “Medicare for All” are whether they understand how such a system would actually work ― and whether they really support what is arguably its most sweeping and controversial feature. When it comes to Kamala Harris, the answer to both questions appears to be yes. Harris, the Democratic senator from California who is now running for president, said during a CNN forum Monday evening that she believes health care should be a right ― and that creating a single, government-run insurance program modeled on Medicare is the best way to achieve that. Harris’ endorsement of Medicare for All is not a new development. She is among more than a dozen Democratic senators who in, in late 2017, co-sponsored Medicare for All legislation from Bernie Sanders, the independent senator from Vermont and longtime champion of the idea. Harris reiterated that support just a few weeks ago, in an op-ed for The New York Times. But the Medicare for All Act of 2017, as the legislation is formally called, envisions some dramatic changes to the U.S. health care system ― including a prohibition on private insurance, except for coverage of services outside the scope of the new government plan. The new plan would pay for just about every medically necessary service, so that wouldn’t leave much of a role, if any, for private coverage. So far, it hasn’t been clear whether all of the bill’s co-sponsors, several of whom are running for president or at least thinking about it, really want to see such a wholesale change happen ― or whether their support of the Sanders proposal was simply a way of signaling support for universal health care, which can take many forms and which can include a prominent role for private insurers. // ?: Getty Images
