One method that might be tried for finding a way to make low cost health insurance more available to those in need might be the use of mandate-lite policies. These are policies designed to overcome health insurance mandates that make coverage more expensive. By eliminating some (or all) mandated benefits, health insurers are able to offer a more affordable health insurance product. While these plans may not meet the needs of every consumer, they do offer another option for those who cannot afford coverage. This then could be an approach to use to make low cost health insurance more available.
