AMA pres hails ACA

[Guns Guns Guns]

The AMA has supported the health reform law since its inception.

Our history is such that we have supported covering the uninsured along with an individual responsibility provision.

This comes from the work we’re doing every day, seeing patients.

For us it means millions of the uninsured will have insurance coverage.

The good news is a lot of people are going to get health insurance and access to prevention and wellness programs.

That means their quality of life will get better.

These patients, however, are new to the health care system.

We’re going to have to be doing a lot of work making sure that the best care is delivered in the most appropriate venue.

On the short term, teaching patients how to use their health insurance is going to be a huge issue.

We’re going to have to work together, really with everybody, to teach people how to use prevention and what benefits are available to them.

That's another aspect of reform that needs addressed. The AMA's monopoly is one of the causes for primary carry being unafordable for many people.

that's just a minor problem, according to those who didn't feel that price controls were important enough to tackle first, right?
