Report: State must do more to curb health care costs
A report from a state panel says hospitals, nursing homes and doctors need to better communicate with a patient about their wishes for end-of-life care.
The recommendation is included in a report issued by the Health Care Quality and Cost Council that urges Massachusetts to curb rising health care costs while also improving care.
Silly spammers

It seems that A few of my posts have been hijacked by spam. The filter did not see them, but they seemed to be nestled in there snugger than a puppy in a pile of old clothes. So a few posts from the last months have been deleted to get rid of the pests. The filter seems to be working on all new posts. A word to the wise – keep your WordPress software up to date!

Is healthcare a right?
April 15th, 2008 at 10:23 am (Bioethics, Healthcare)
Does every human on earth have a right to healthcare? Do you? Is it an innate right? If you have a right to healthcare do I have the responsibility to provide it to you? A moral obligation to do so? whats the difference? why should you care?
Perhaps you should care because this is a major topic that is floating around under the US elections and is a major political/social question facing the entire world. Particularly, now with the rising cost of food, what responsibilities do we have? Is our responsibility only local? global?
