Health Care Jobs Program?

Indeed. Our new health care system will essentially be the same Rube Goldberg machine we have now with a few improvements. Most of the waste will be still be there. There's a whole lotta people in the health care biz who don't do no health care. And not only that, the job description of many of those folks is pretty much to harass and waste the time of those few of us who actually take care of sick people. It's sort of a Republican make-work program. My only reservation about Dr Ross's article is about Medicare itself: Medicare is great for patients--there's no problem getting reasonable services approved. But, at least in home care, Medicare works real hard to find a way to not pay providers for services already rendered.
