Sick Massachusetts Residents Say Health Care Costs Are a Worsening Problem
Satisfaction with Quality Is High, Problems Found for Some

They have a much more positive attitude toward the quality of health care in Massachusetts, however, and most say quality has improved or stayed the same over the past five years.
