Abstract

"In the Lobby" piece on the Dirigo Health Plan, commenting on the possibility of a deal to use state General Fund money to finance the plan.

With additional comments by Dana Connors, head of the Maine State Chamber of Commerce; Trish Riley, Governor Baldacci's chief health-issues aide; Tarren Bragdon of the Maine Heritage Policy Center; and Charles Lawton, senior economist for Planning Decisions.
