An op-ed in the Houston Chronicle, echoing themes that you read here:
While many are calling for health care reforms to cover the uninsured, we must first ask ourselves the important question: What good is coverage without access to it?If we really want serious health care reform, we need to start with changing the way we pay physicians. We need a system that provides incentives for reduced costs and quality care while protecting the eroded physician-patient relationship.

My partners and I have donated generously to John Cornyn’s campaign and I would encourage those of you who can to do the same. I have met Mr. Cornyn personally and believe he sincerely understands the issues facing physicians and patients alike.
