What works and what doesn't
Art Caplan has written his two cents worth about the health care reform push. Dr. Caplan needs to read the current bills being hashed out in the Senate and the House. The House bill is over 1000 pages. (The expectation is that, like the last 3 Big Bills, the actual final version will appear in … Continue reading

Mayo Clinic calls health care plans bad medicine
I’ve always said that if the Mayo Clinic docs were so smart, they’d come to Texas where it’s warm and they can golf year around (like their patients who visit us from October to April). Nevertheless, doctors at Minnesota’s Mayo Clinic have come out against the current plans for health “reform.” They are joined by … Continue reading
Governor Jindal reminds us how FEMA helped flood insurance
You may not be aware that the only way to buy flood insurance is through FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency. In fact, the Agency draws the lines for the Flood Plains and so, decides whether you need flood insurance.

Health Care Reform: Tax and Spend (and abortion on tax dollars)
(Editorial correction: Sermo was not begun by the AMA. It is a private group, possibly funded originally by pharmaceutical companies. But, no one there knew the funding source.)(The vote is now nearly 11,000, and still against the new plan.) How about a simple solution to the rising government expenditures for health care: don’t “force Congress” … Continue reading

Will you pay for abortions?
One more problem with federal interference in the payment for health care is whether or not Federal tax money will be used to pay for abortions. I’ve been worrying about what I’d do about my taxes if the law makes me complicit to this extent. From the Kaiser Foundation: An ultimatum against using federal money … Continue reading
