We should allow people to purchase health insurance across state lines. That will create a true 50-state national marketplace which will drive down the cost of low-cost, catastrophic health insurance.

The single best thing we can do is expand competition. Let people purchase health insurance across state lines. If you want to expand access, what you want to do is increase choices and drive down cost.

We need to level the playing field so that people who buy insurance individually at the same tax rates as those who buy it than get it through work. We need to be able to let people to shop across state lines for better deals with insurance that works for them and their family, not something the government says they have to have.

Everybody says they want to have private providers and we're saying fine. Let the states negotiate on behalf of a population in your state to drive down your costs. Don't just give subsidies to insurance companies for expensive insurance.

We have a plan that creates universal access programs at the state level which allows folks to access insurance if they're denied by their insurer.

We need to increase access to health insurance through Health Savings Accounts and high deductible policies, so individuals and families can purchase the insurance that's best for them and meets their specific needs.

I believe we can incentivize more affordable health care in general by better regulating insurance and creating meaningful competition for health care services.

Get more competition into the New Hampshire marketplace, and then we'll find that there will be insurers that will compete on convenience as compared to cost.

I know how critical it is to make sure that people with pre-existing conditions have affordable insurance, and states are able to do that.
