Thanks for posting, Justin. In this convenient digital format, there’s no reason for our legislators in Congress to not sign on to the readthebill.org movement. Not too much to ask, right?

I thought the sex scenes were a little much. Seriously, Senator Ensign, time and place, dude, time and place.

Reports are the Kennedy family appendices run to thousands of pages, Michael, and that’s just the timeline. The Craig chapter is said to be surprisingly short, though I hear there’s some great beach scenes in the Foley folio of the House version.

Many medical professionals are discussing ways to cut spending and save money within the health care industry itself.
In an interview with Dr. Eva Mor, she claims that, “
The administration of the existing health delivery system is bloated with waste and unnecessary cost. If information was shared by all providers of health services and all insurers by using computerized systems to store all medical records, it would cut costs and reduce errors that would save and improve lives.
What we need in a health system is uniformity in pricing for procedures and services and modalities of provision of testing and procedures for diagnosis and treatment. By providing coverage to the uninsured, which initially will cost the taxpayer, it eventually will save us hundreds of millions of dollars.”http://www.ourblook.com/component/option,com_sectionex/Itemid,200076/id,8/view,category/#catid107
She is not alone in her belief either. There is a need to save dollars on procedural costs in order to balance the entire industry.
