Mini Newsletter: Health Care Reform and You - August 1, 2009

“The health care reform bills moving through Congress look as though they would do a good job of providing coverage for millions of uninsured Americans. But what would they do for the far greater number of people who already have insurance? As President Obama noted in his news conference last week, many of them are wondering: ‘What’s in this for me? How does my family stand to benefit from health insurance reform?’” New York Times Editorial

Health Policy Is Carved Out at Table for 6 By DAVID M. HERSZENHORN and ROBERT PEAR. Copyright by The New York Times. Published: July 27, 2009... The fate of the health care overhaul largely rests on the shoulders of six senators who since June 17 have gathered — often twice a day, and for many hours at a stretch — in a conference room with burnt sienna walls, in the office of the Senate Finance Committee chairman, Max Baucus, Democrat of Montana....http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/28/us/politics/28baucus.html?_r=1&th&emc=th

“American Values” — A Smoke Screen in the Debate on Health Care Reform by Allan S. Brett, M.D. Copyright by The New England Journal of Medicine. July 29th, 2009. Amid all the rhetoric about health care reform, one claim has emerged as a trump card designed to preserve the current patchwork of private and public insurance and to stop discussion of a government-sponsored single-payer system in its tracks: the claim that single-payer health care — a Canadian-style Medicare-for-all system — is antithetical to “American values.” The idea that American values dictate a particular approach to health care reform is often stated explicitly, and it is implicit in the generalization that “Americans want” a particular system. The underlying premise is that an identifiable set of American values point incontrovertibly to a health care system anchored by the private insurance industry. Remarkably, this premise has received very little scrutiny. http://healthcarereform.nejm.org/?p=1245?query=TOC

The Battle Over a Baby By PAMELA PAUL. Published: July 22, 2009. On Christmas Eve in 2007, the State of West Virginia bestowed upon Kathryn Kutil and Cheryl Hess of Oak Hill a relative rarity in the foster-care system: a newborn. The baby girl, TiCasey, was born on Dec. 8 to a longtime drug addict, father unknown, and entered the world with cocaine, opiates and benzodiazepines in her bloodstream. For two weeks after delivery, she went through withdrawal, unable to sleep and crying incessantly. When not being held by a hospital nurse, she was put in special rocking machines to help relieve her pain. Still suffering from tremors and extended crying jags, TiCasey arrived at Kutil and Hess’s home, where she was met by five other foster children all clamoring to hold her. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/26/magazine/26lesbian-t.html?th&emc=th

Washington Post Editorial: Cocaine Justice - Strides are being made toward fairness in sentencing. Copyright by The Washington Post. Sunday, July 26, 2009. THIS YEAR marks the 25th anniversary of legislation that created mandatory minimum sentences and established a 100-to-1 sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. Over those 25 years, something close to consensus has emerged that the imbalance is unfair and possibly discriminatory. Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has called for closing the gap, commenting that "we all know that this egregious difference in punishment is simply wrong." Yet it has persisted, filling America's prisons and undermining many people's faith in the criminal justice system. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/25/AR2009072501948.html
