The Health Reform Consensus Act: proceed with caution.
Congress must seize the opportunity President Clinton has created to make some long-needed changes to the nation's health system. But we can't afford the expensive and experimental measures contained in the Clinton bill or in the other measures now being debated in Congress. What we can do this year is pass measures that revamp the insurance market, expand access to the uninsured through community health centers, eliminate administrative burdens, and reform our medical malpractice and antitrust systems.
