The proportion of children in the United States without private or public health insurance increased from roughly 13 percent to 18 percent between 1977 and 1987, according to a new study by the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR). The growth in the proportion of uninsured children in poor and low-income families over the decade was even more dramatic—it rose from 21 percent to 31 percent.

Previous chapters have provided the historical context and the justification for a set of four core aims of health care policy in light of the requisites of citizenship in a democratic society, and then the basic structure of a reformed national health care system designed to achieve those core aims. Briefly stated, the four core policy aims include: comprehensive health insurance coverage with adequate and equal risk protection, the amelioration of disparities in health care access and quality, equitable comprehensive care and public health investments, and compensatory investments in health care services and public health infrastructure for groups adversely affected by health disparities. This chapter illuminates the major dimensions of health care system performance that are most closely linked to these core policy aims, the range of health care system measures specific to each dimension of performance, and those that appear optimal in light of validity and the pragmatics of data system design and sustainability. The chapter then concludes with a discussion of the criteria for health care policy “success”.
