The winner of the day!

Exactly.

If she is such a crusader maybe her efforts would get better results cleaning up the problems in the medical profession...unneeded prescription drugs due to the hot shot sales methods of the pharmaceutical profession, the hospitals that constantly rate low on the national ratings, the long waits in the emergency rooms, the lack of skilled docs in some emergency rooms, etc.

And most of all, end the gold mine/questionable ethics of robbing the taxpayers with bogus charges, a fact acknowledged by every study but ignored by hospital administrators.

A recent Johns Hopkins study claims more than 250,000 people in the U.S. die every year from medical errors. Other reports claim the numbers to be as high as 440,000.
Medical errors are the third-leading cause of death after heart disease and cancer.
