please...stop calling it "health care reform" it was never that [View all]

it was health insurance reform
the law does nothing to change the working attitudes of the millions of dedicated health professionals who will attend you.
nothing in the law orders a medical person to do or stop doing any procedure they would now do.
it is an insult to those working in health care to say they were the ones needing "reform".
every thing i know from my experience with the health care industry (my wife was a nurse for 8 years and then a nurse midwife since 1996 she has been a health dept nurse in 3 states and operated her own womens health clinic)shows me that it is the insurance companies that needed to have an attitude adjustment
