Healthcare Affordability Scorecard

Kentucky

Polling data repeatedly shows that healthcare affordability is the top issue that state residents, on both sides of the political aisle, want their policymakers to work on. 

Kentucky's Healthcare Affordability State Policy Scorecard identifies areas where the state is doing well and areas where it can improve. As the scorecard shows, Kentucky policymakers have a robust toolset they can use to (1) ensure all residents have affordable coverage options with consumer-friendly cost-sharing and (2) address underlying drivers of healthcare affordability problems—excess prices and the provision of low-value care.

Also available:

• A scorecard methodology report that includes a discussion of processes and policies used to evaluate states.
• Previous iterations of the Affordability Scorecard. Due to certain methodological enhancements, we do not recommend directly comparing the scores between the three iterations.
