how the health care system is run.

Sure, I agree we need Universal Health Care in America. However, we need to examine how the health care system is managed.. Close to 100,000 people die each year in hospitals due to medical errors.As a former employee at a famous hospital on Long Island - I have first-hand knowledge on how the care system works in America.The hospital I worked at had too much administrative waste. There was endless paperwork in processing patient information. Many of the positions, especially in theNon-medical…See More

Philadelphia Sit In 10/30/09

When any American keeps quiet about the travesties met by patients and their families when claim denials take place, that unto itself is a travesty. There is no reason for it. Human life has been threatened and lost at the hands of insurers. Many loved ones are gone forever. Please get involved, Philadelphians.
