Practicing US physicians uniting to represent the interests and concerns of both patients and doctors in the healthcare reform debate.

D4PC endorses the concept of needed healthcare reform, but we recognize it can only be accomplished by proceeding in a cautious and responsible manner.

Our recommendations will enable us to reach this goal without requiring the nationalization of the entire American healthcare system.

THE 20 BIG LIES IN THE HEALTHCARE REFORM DEBATE
