Letter From the Editor


It's the Anatomy, Stupid

I am sure you were as intrigued as I was during the presidential debate the other night when Tom Brokaw posed: Is healthcare a privilege, a right or a responsibility?

McCain said it was a responsibility; Obama a right. Both answers are quite politically charged and you'll want to learn more about the policy positions underpinning those philosophies.

In this week's DOTmed Online News we reprise an analysis that appeared in our magazine, DOTmed Business News. Read about the candidates' positions on the issue so near to our hearts. And be sure to let us know your views: Will the new president effect change in the healthcare sector?

Use the link below to send us your comments.

See you tomorrow.
