Pretty good Lexington Dispatch coverage of Rep. Mel Watt’s healthcare reform town hall meeting at Davidson Community College.
Read the whole article, but the key message comes from Dr. Zan Tyson, a cardiologist who’s already being squeezed by Medicare:
“We’re scrambling, getting ready to cut services. Physicians are planning to leave the practice,” Tyson said. “So, I have a message for you. That message would be that it won’t do much good to provide people with health insurance if there are no doctors there to provide for them.”
Anyone else see the irony behind Watt’s belief that tort reform would be unconstitutional?
