I agree there’s a lot of comments about reform of the health system and I strongly believe that one of the ways to reform the health system is to incorporate homecare as an alternative. These days there is a lot of equipment available to facilitate homecare as a working alternative also there is a lot of healthcare training to support people who would take on caring for people at home

Isn’t laughter the best medicine, or something like that? In any case, we sure need more fun in the world of health and wellness!

Not all solutions have to be about throwing a few billion around. For example this single step of Congress passing a safe harbor bill for physicians who utilize evidence based medicine would accomplish much at no cost. Think about it; higher quality and less variation, lower malpractice costs, and a 10% reduction in healthcare costs ($270 billion) from suits and defensive medicine. There are many programs such as this that could help transform healthcare at no cost, but create great savings.

I don’t know about California but in SC, disorderly conduct gets an adolescent offender (certainly healthcare isn’t an adult) pre-trial intervention and/or community service. As excellent as SNL’s Weekend Update. Thanks for the smile.

Great posts – by you and everyone included. Informative & entertaining at the same time – just what we need! A little comedy to lighten the sometimes-depressing mood surrounding health care.

Nice job, Friday. Very creative. Kudos for using a crime theme and not mentioning Rod Blagojevich. We here in Illinois thank you.
