Health-care companies and advocacy groups are coming together to maximize enrollment in the health-care law, reports Chris Frates: "With health reform in the books, some of the most powerful industry groups that battled against each other during the epic debate have now teamed up and raised $450,000 to explore the idea of creating a national nonprofit that would help implement key parts of the law. PhRMA, the drug manufacturers’ trade group, donated $100,000 to the effort, while the American Hospital Association is in for $50,000. Health insurers and other stakeholders in the new law are also contributing to the effort that is aimed at ensuring the millions of people newly eligible for Medicaid and insurance subsidies are able to easily apply and receive those benefits." The idea was hatched by Families USA, a liberal health care advocacy group.
