DJP Update 5-17-2010 NPSF Congress; Interview that gives Palmisano view Health System Reform, plaintiff attorneys & AMA
ITEM ONE: NPSF Patient Safety Congress
Now in Orlando, Florida for the annual Congress of the National Patient Safety Foundation (NPSF). I serve on the Board of Governors. NPSF is an organization that AMA was a key player in the formation in 1997 as one of the Founding Sponsors. AMA gave one million dollars to help get it launched. That was a good decision! Wish AMA used that judgment in the health system reform debate rather than helping pass a disaster law.

ITEM TWO: Palmisano view Health System Reform, Plaintiff attorneys, and AMA.
For those who continue to ask, here is a summary of my perspective on health system reform. But to the regular readers of DJP Update, I repeat myself!
Below is the tweet I sent today that gives the Weblink to my interview published April 2010 in Modern Medicine. As the current health system reform law unfolds, I still believe the view in that interview is the way to go rather than the current law that will fail in its present form.
