The Lewin Group was hired by the Hawai’i Institute for Public Affairs (HIPA), an independent non-partisan organization, to perform a comprehensive evaluation of the costs and benefits of a single-payer system as outlined in HB 1617. The evaluation is intended to assist the Hawai’i Health Care Task Force in developing a comprehensive health care coverage plan for the citizens of Hawai’i.
