Summary

Declares that it is the sense of the House of Representatives that: (1) a universal health care system, using Medicare, Medicaid, public and private insurance, and mandated employee benefits, be established by this Congress; (2) cost containment measures be included; and (3) system costs be covered through cost savings stemming from cost containment, a focus on primary and preventive care, a shift away from competition, quality control accountability, and, if new tax revenues are necessary, through revenues designed to minimize their effect on working and middle-income Americans.
