starting up

I have a story running this week about my trip to Boston, and filling you in about the Massachusetts health reform plan. People up there are very proud of what they've done, but they certainly have their work cut out for them. Read all about it this week in the Inquirer. can't say which day yet.

Seems the big battle shaping up in the Obama health reform is whether to have a public plan to compete with private insurers and what that will look like.

Families USA just reported 27 percent uninusred in Pennsylvania at some point in the last two years. Waiting list for adultbasic in Pennsylvania is now over 200,000 people.

I was moderator on a panel the other day at the College of Physicians. a report to follow soon.
