Description de l’éditeur
Health care reform is once again in the air. Everyone is excited--probably too excited--about the possibility that reform could be enacted next year. As the debate evolves and intensifies, it behooves those of us interested in bioethics to ask ourselves "What are we doing to promote reform?" Talking about reform and avowing our sincere support for universal coverage are easy. The bigger challenge is to gauge whether the bioethical decisions we make, the advice we offer, and the positions we espouse are furthering or hindering sustainable reform.
