Kaiser Health Tracking Poll -- February 2012

In the midst of continuing debate on the future of the Medicare program, the February Kaiser Family Foundation Tracking Poll finds most Americans and most seniors favor the status quo, though arguments about the program’s solvency have the potential to sway opinion toward new proposals. The survey also gauges public opinion about the ongoing contraceptive coverage debate, views of the Affordable Care Act, and trust in the presidential candidates on health care issues.

The February poll is the latest in a series designed and analyzed by the Foundation’s public opinion research team.
