With Congress' debt-reduction Super Committee facing a Wednesday deadline, the Kaiser Family Foundation has compiled a number of its resources that shed light on how the ongoing national debate about deficit reduction may affect Medicare, Medicaid and other health-care programs.

The resources include summaries and comparisons of relevant elements of major deficit-reduction plans, analyses of specific savings proposals, and explanatory briefs and backgrounders describing key issues related to the debate. All can be found online.

The Kaiser Family Foundation, a leader in health policy analysis, health journalism and communication, is dedicated to filling the need for trusted, independent information on the major health issues facing our nation and its people. The Foundation is a non-profit private operating foundation, based in Menlo Park, California.
