Discussing Health Care at Leisure World

I had the pleasure and honor of participating in a Health Care Reform panel discussion yesterday over at Leisure World, hosted by ENFORCE. The turn out was very strong and a substantive discussion followed. The questions were quite thoughtful and provided both panels with a broad range of concerns to debate. These questions touched on everything from internet privacy to the solvency of our Medicare system; to how best to reduce health care costs without adding to our National deficit; tort reform; the public option; and the potential future problems with excluding illegal immigrants from any taxpayer funded health care plans.

This is clearly a complicated and topic and the debate will continue as this bill now moves on from the House to the Senate. I look forward to following this closely and continuing to help all of the citizens of Montgomery County better understand these issues.
