I am at DFW waiting for my flight to Washington, DC. I’m one of 40 students from UTDallas going for a week of meetings with policy makers of all stripes.
We’re told these talks are under “Chatham House Rules” (which means off the record, but I need to look up the reference see the link) so I won’t be going into detail on who said what. I do intend to share the insights I can that interest me.
Stay Tuned.
Be sure to read “The Cost Conundrum” in the New Yorker.

More docs will have to make that trip.
The politicians in Washington seem hell bent on killing off the best health care system on the planet. Unless the people who make that system work speak up, we’re gonna get stuck with another government-made disaster.
