Costs of Health Care
* Re “Disease, Care Costs Beset Poor in Valley,” Aug. 30.
As documented in your article, thousands of California residents are currently without health insurance. Their plight illustrates dramatically the need to call for a stop to the self-motivated personal injury lawyers who are looking to profit by suing HMOs.
Litigation is only going to create higher costs and put more Californians in the dire straits depicted in your article.
If we’re truly going to improve health care in California and across the nation, we should put the job back in the hands of our elected leaders and take it out of the courts--where only lawyers win.
