Abstract
What system will ensure that all Americans can get medical care? How should it be financed? Can a standard benefits package ever be fair? Is a national health board a good idea? Recently, POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE arranged an exclusive exchange at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, between two senior fellows from groups that study such issues, with Glen C. Griffin, MD, asking the questions. The liberal viewpoint was represented by Marilyn Moon of the Urban Institute and the conservative viewpoint was represented by Peter Ferrara of the National Center for Policy Analysis.
