Foreign travel for health care?
For a travel writer, there is no surer way to attract a barrage of hate mail than to suggest foreign travel for the purpose of obtaining medical or dental treatment. Immediately, dozens of U.S. doctors and dentists accuse you of putting people's lives at risk, since only U.S. doctors and dentists are able to safely treat us. And U.S. medical and dental treatments, as we all know, are the absolute best. If the United States had universal medical and dental insurance, and every American was able to afford treatment here at home, I would not be disposed to argue the matter. But more than 40 million Americans are without such insurance and are unable to afford many elective treatments here at home. The proposed remedy will, therefore, not go away. Outside the United States are medical facilities and a myriad of doctors and dentists willing to charge modest sums within the financial reach of nearly everyone.

We all get sick, need health care
Elizabeth Edwards is the wife of a Democratic presidential candidate and Tony Snow is the chief spokesman for a Republican president, but they are on the same side of the battle against cancer. Both recently announced that cancer for which they had previously been treated had come back. Mrs. Edwards, the wife of John Edwards, and Mr. Snow, President Bushs press secretary, have access to excellent medical care. The Edwards family is rich, and surely the White House has a fine employee health insurance plan. Not everyone is so fortunate. Almost 50 million Americans have no health insurance. While everyone supposedly is entitled to minimal health care regardless of ability to pay, uninsured people are less likely to get preventive care that may keep them from becoming seriously ill.
Opting out of the fast lane
Dr. Mary Mehta wanted to live in a place where she could practice medicine, but also be able to spend more time with her three children and husband.Her answer? Move from South Florida to Pensacola where she works as a pediatric cardiologist for Nemours Children's Clinic."We needed a more reasonable lifestyle," Mehta said of the hectic, on-call life she and her physician-husband had been leading. "We took the plunge," she said of their move three years ago. And it seems to have worked out well for their family.Many local employers confirm what national studies report: More women are opting out of the high-powered career path to strike a better balance between work and home. A 60-hour work week, even with a fantastic paycheck, is no longer the key.To keep women like Mehta from picking up and moving, some area businesses are considering ways to keep them happy.
Health Care for All, Tax Benefits for Doctors - Presidential ...
Presidential candidate Orion Karl Daley proposes a federal health care program for all citizens that includes financial incentives for individual health care practitioners as well as HMOs. (PRWEB) April 10, 2007 -- Presidential candidate Orion Karl Daley proposes a federal health care program for all citizens that includes financial incentives for individual health care practitioners as well as HMOs. Mr. Daley sees that the health, safety and welfare of the people represent the soundness of this nation. He believes that today's private sector health care is complicated, expensive, and only provides diminishing returns for its stated purpose. Candidate Daley questions why the current administration has been indifferent -- in his opinion -- to the health care crisis and why prescription drug coverage has to be so costly? He thinks the government has not acted on lessons learned from 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina -- despite his belief that the government's only legitimate purpose is to serve the people. Mr.
