American College of Physicians endorses SINGLE PAYER healthcare [View All]

I'm a physician and part of Physicians for a National Health Program and I want to spread the news that in a recent research survey 59% (a clear majority) of physicians support single payer health care.

Additionally, the American College of Physicians has does extensive research and endorses single payer health care. If your doctor has FACP in their title they are a "Fellow of the American College of Physicians".

Finally, the New York Academy of Family Practice is working within the American Academy of Family Practice (of which I am part) to try to get them to promote single payer health care as well.

These are all very good indicators.

You would be surprised at how many people, nurses, and physicians support single payer health care and I hope the Democratic Party gets the message loud and clear because it seems we are ahead of the party leaders.

PNHP has sent an open letter to the Presidential candidates to pursuade them to reconsider single payer health care as the best solution.

Call it socialized medicine, call it what you want but it seems to be the best sort of system for any advanced industrialized Western country. We deserve much better than what we get. We deserve at least what we pay for.

Thanks and make sure you never shy away from a debate on health care policy. The facts are in our favor.
