The University of Massachusetts Medical School recently released a report that found that the proportion that employers, consumers and the state government were paying on healthcare coverage was the same in 2007 as they were a year before a new statewide health insurance mandate went into effect. The 2006 law requires almost all Massachusetts residents to have health insurance or they will face a stiff penalty. The report also states, employers with more than 10 full-time equivalent staff must provide coverage or pay fees for the uninsured workers. The report continues that in 2007, employers amounted to approximately 48 percent of spending on coverage in Massachusetts. Furthermore, consumers paid around 25 percent and state and federal government contributed around 27 percent.
