From a NC newspaper, article on health cuts
http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2...r-health-cuts/ This is medicaid but an example of how government handles healthcare.
I especially took interest in this quote--"Another new Medicaid restriction targets radiological tests, such as ultrasounds, CT scans and MRIs. Starting this month, before a Medicaid recipient can get one of these tests, the test will have to be approved by a private management company that has a contract with the state."---Is there a Radiologist in the house? tconner around?
