Polls are horrid evidence in my mind LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 29/09/2009 09:32:58 PM

Just because the government runs something does not mean it's doomed to failure.

i have yet to see any evidence of malpractice insurance being a driving cost of health care moondog - 30/09/2009 05:27:34 AM 738 Views
When the malpractice insurance can cost well over $100k a year of course it effects the costs. Brian - 30/09/2009 06:21:29 AM 732 Views
it's not THAT they pay malpractice LadyLorraine - 30/09/2009 02:00:04 PM 598 Views
but doctors are *required* to buy malpractice insurance moondog - 30/09/2009 04:13:08 PM 654 Views
that's completely moot to the situation malpractice insurance causes. LadyLorraine - 30/09/2009 04:21:42 PM 605 Views

Yes, it's comforting to see that we are only rated 37th... Danu - 29/09/2009 11:14:33 PM 630 Views
That is a decade old and horribly discredited citation Isaac - 29/09/2009 11:46:51 PM 814 Views
regardless, we still spend a lot more on health care while having too many uncovered people moondog - 29/09/2009 11:56:24 PM 629 Views
My objection, in this context, is strictly about references Isaac - 30/09/2009 12:13:40 AM 635 Views
