REP DENNIS MOORE (D-KS) FINALLY CORNERED. ADMITS NOT READING BILL: Dennis Moore, appearing on
KMBZ radio Kansas City Morning News with EJ & Ellen, was finally forced to answer
one of my questions. Ellen asks:
I was reading this article in the Washington Times by Dr.
Milton Wolf who is a Kansas radiologist. You know, I think he actually
talked to you and contacted your office. He writes that there's "a
scheme in this bill" that "actually penalizes your primary care
physician if he is in the top 10 percent of doctors who refer patients
to specialists, no matter how valid the reason." That brings up
questions of rationing. That brings up questions of quality health
care. Is that still in there?
Moore answers:
I don’t know. And I will find out. But I don’t know if
that’s in there. This is, as you know, a multi-hundred, several hundred
pages of bill, but uh, uh, I'll check with Dr. Wolf directly too and
talk to him and find out what, what, what his concern is because I
don't know that.
