Morning Briefing

Today KHN unveils the first offering from our new partnership with PolitiFact, “HealthCheck,” through which we’ll truth-squad health care claims made by politicians and policymakers. With 70 percent of Americans saying that health care is “in crisis” or has “major problems,” we expect to examine lots of sound bites from all sides. We’ll parse what’s true, what’s not and all the subtle shades of gray in between. Because health care is complicated. But facts are not. — Elisabeth Rosenthal, KHN EIC
