Find Health Reform Information
from Congress' Bills and Summaries

Here are a
variety of ways to make it easier to find and
read the information we need
from valid sources.
I made these
pages after realizing that many
people may not be aware of where to find
health reform bills and documents,
not searching in and reading
them,
and relying on others to
interpret them. And a survey of
health professionals indicated that
some had not looked at the bills
very much. A
useful finding was about the minimum amount
of studying was that health
professionals who feel they are good
resources* on health reform spent an average of 5 hours
reviewing and searching for
information in the bill HR 3200.
Objective Summaries from
Congress' own Congressional Research Service (1
1/2 page text /
9-minute audio, and
6 page text /
13-minute audio)
