Obama's healthcare plan - 'more of the same' (OneNewsNow.com): "The nation's largest faith-based association of physicians is weighing in on President Obama's nearly $1-trillion healthcare proposal.
Dr. David Stevens, CEO of the Christian Medical & Dental Associations (CMDA), is concerned that Obama's healthcare overhaul, which many thought was dead, appears to have been resurrected. 'The question,' he says, 'is whether it's still dead and people just are pretending it's alive.'
Stevens says the president's plan is 'essentially more of the same -- a tweaking of the Senate Bill and grabbing a few things out of the House bill.' He says the focus of reform needs to be on costs. 'Including preventing runaway malpractice suits; allowing more competition across state lines; allowing lower premiums to encourage healthy lifestyles; [and giving] a tax credit to people who don't have insurance if they go out and buy it themselves,' he suggests."
