Resolve, To Study The Costs And Funding Of A Universal Health Care Plan For Maine

This resolution directs Maine's Office of Affordable Health Care to study the costs and funding mechanisms for a universal health care plan. The office must consult with the Department of Health and Human Services and use specific models (including Maine AllCare's All Maine Health Program) to analyze how a publicly funded, privately and publicly provided system could work. The study will conclude with a December 2025 report to the Health Coverage Committee, which may propose legislation based on the findings. This resolution does not create health care coverage but sets the groundwork for future policy decisions.
