Hope for real reform?
Posted by Nurse Advocate on January 5, 2009 - 1:59pmThere is finally real potential for health care reform. With the election of Barack Obama and now his appointment of former Senator Tom Daschle to head Health and Human Services and the announcement of Hilda Solis to head the Labor Dept, real reform may be on the way.

Heathcare Status: Uninsured
I don't have one of those dramatic, life-and-death horror stories that so many do. I'm just an older family man (age 59) who lost my health insurance when I was involuntarily "retired" after nearly 25 years as a public school head custodian three years ago. Since then, I have held part time jobs and contract employment without health coverage.
