In this
Kaiser Health News column, which is a collaboration with
The New Republic, Jonathan Cohn, writes about health care's bugs. "The proponents of reform talk all the time about improving the quality of care, both to save lives and make it less expensive, and frequently cite hospital infections to make their point. (Even opponents of reform have been known to agree on this front.) And the bills they've moved through the legislative process supposedly follow through on this. But if you look closely at the legislation, you'll see that the proposals fall a bit short on that promise" (11/3).
