Now for the true costs of health care reform
Finally, someone lays out the quid pro quos! Great article in the New York Times about just what the doctors, drug companies, insurers, and hospitals are likely to ask in return for supporting President Obama’s health care reform proposal. The only thing missing — which may be unknowable — is a cost comparison: How much would be saved by the reforms these groups agree to, versus how much their “quids” would cost. ttp://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/08/health/policy/08health.html?scp=4&sq=Sheryl%20Gay%20Stolberg&st=cse
