If for no other reason, this discussion of an experienced legislator's proposals for solutions to the medical crisis is worth a read just for his idea of an oversite board to keep abuse of the medical reimbursement under control. It's a shame Dashle won't get the opportunity to put together the real thing, and let us see how he'd enforce standards..
The perplexing issue of private vs. goverment control of medical facilities is brought down to size by his superagency concept. Because he recogizes where we been with health legislation, and knows government to see where we have to go; he recognizes improvements won't be a one size fits all solution. This is a source of facts, history and understanding that professionals, and managers should listen to.

The authors do a superb anlysis of our present non-functioning health care situation and the history of how it got that way. However, the solution offered--an over-sight board and the continued use of private, for profit health insurance companies--would be cumbersome, wasteful and inefficient. The authors admit that the plan they suggest is, at best, a politically expidient tinkering with what they call our present Bzyantine circumstances, not a systemic fix.
