In an article in the New England Journal of Medicine, a team of University of Michigan Medical School researchers publish the first analysis of the initial results from the Healthy Michigan Plan, which launched this past April.
In its first 100 days, the authors write, the plan enrolled 327,912 people with incomes below or just above the poverty level - beating projections for its entire first year. Almost 80 percent of them hadn't been enrolled in other state health programs for the poor. And 36 percent of those enrolled in the first two months had used their insurance to visit a doctor or clinic by the end of the fourth month.
