Health Plan Makes It to Bookstores

Hot off the presses: the complete text of President Clinton’s blueprint on health care reform.

“The President’s Health Security Plan,” a 304-page paperback, started showing up in bookstores Wednesday, according to Mary Beth Roche, a publicist for Times Books. It is being sold for $8.

The document previously had been available for inspection only by key staff members on Capitol Hill.

“We are publishing the entire plan in the belief that the health care industry, Congress and the public will want to refer to this extraordinarily thoughtful and provocative plan,” Steve Wasserman, editorial director of Times Books, said in a statement.
