I wonder if you too have begun to see some advertisements that I feel may be connected, at least philosophically, to the new health care bill. The efforts seem to be examples of programs using new ways to take care of our health, ways that are based on being a part of a health care team and working to maintain health and prevent illness. Generally they are projects that are low cost and include the patient as a member of the team, all learning what to do for the specific issue at of the patient.
All in all, I am excited to see these changes, or at least, to be living in an environment that encourages collaboration, if only for educational purposes. Programs dealing with hospitalization for major issues so far aren't showing up on my radar but I bet it will be soon for those of us who do not have individual or employer-based health issue.
These are good changes for the US. I am pleased and proud.
