AMA Asks Presidential Candidates 10 Questions
The AMA asked Barack Obama and John McCain 10 questions about their health care proposals and posted the responses on its Web site.
A key objective of the American Medical Association’s (AMA) “Voice for the Uninsured” campaign has been to bring national attention to the issue of the uninsured. The AMA is pleased that each of the 2008 presidential candidates have made health care a top priority in their respective campaigns. In response to a set of ten questions posed to the candidates about their health care reform proposals, listed below are the verbatim responses received from the campaigns of Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Barack Obama (D-IL). We encourage readers to review these questions and answers as they evaluate the proposals and platforms of the presidential candidates.
The result is a decent outline of each candidate's thoughts on some major health care issues.
Neither mentioned PAs.
