Government Resources on Health Reform

Lately the news media are issuing numerous reports on government healthcare reform (such as this article in the Washington Post). So it seems appropriate to explore government web pages and documents on this topic.

President Obama issued an executive order in April that created the White House Office of Health Reform. There is also a government website devoted--HealthReform.gov--devoted to this topic. On this website you can find information about the White House Forums on Health Reform, which include links to video clips, slide shows, blogs, and, from the first forum on March 5, a full report. In addition, the website provides an Online Series on Health Reform and links to government reports such as

• Americans Speak on Health Reform: Report on Health Care Community Discussions
  
• 2008 National Healthcare Quality and Disparities Reports

To find legislation on health reform, try doing a Title search on "health care reform" in FDsys.
