Viewpoints: Health care system doesn't live up to its billing for many Americans; Romney woos seniors with 'clever Medicare gambit'
news-medical.net — “If you like your doctor, if your insurance works, if you feel that you're getting good value for your health care dollar, then in your view the U.S. system may rank high.

And this is aside from debate over the role of government in the health care system.” View full resource at news-medical.net
