>> Senator Bayh,

>> As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the
health care bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am
shocked by the brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in
the patient-physician relationship. The very idea that the government
will dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not
helpful in designing a health care system that works for all. Every
physician I work with agrees that we need to fix our health care
system, but the proposed bills currently making their way through
congress will be a disaster if passed.
>>
>> I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to
look at the following troubling lines that I have read in the bill.
You cannot possibly believe that these proposals are in the best
interests of the country and our fellow citizens.
