I’m reading the bill, checking to make sure the points that have been sent around are accurate (yes they are) but it only takes you to about page 400.

_________________________________QUOTING the HR 3200 HC bill.

On page 619 is the heading CONSIDERATIONS IN SETTING NATIONAL PRIORITIES.

With respect to such priorities, the SECRETARY (that is all thru the bill meaning Sec. of Health and Services) shall ensure that priority is given to areas in the delivery of health care services in the United States that-

PAGE 620
“(1) contribute to a large burden of disease, including those that address the health care provided to patients with prevalent, high-cost chronic diseases;
( I think this is the AIDS solution)

“(2) have the greatest potential to decrease morbidity and mortality in this country, including those that are designed to eliminate harm to patients;

“(3) have the greatest potential for improving the performance, affordability , and patient-centeredness of health care, including those due to variations in care;

“(4) address health disparities across groups and areas;

“ (5) have the potential for rapid improvement due to existing evidence, standards of care or other reasons.

Then it goes on to talk about Consensus-based entities.

What is the priorty going to be?

If the news gets out that the AIDS patients will get rationed out, and that the gay & lesbian crowd are a part of the final solution and get to go first, this will kill the bill ASAP.
