The answer may not be so obvious. I’ll explore that issue at a Cato Institute policy forum this Thursday with two leading authorities on the subject: John Ayanian of Harvard Medical School and David Meltzer of the University of Chicago.

The forum is titled, “[Would Universal Coverage Improve Health?](https://www.cato.org/event.php?eventid=7024)” and will be held at 4pm this Thursday at the Cato Institute. Click the link for details.
