AMA wary of Obama call for public health insurance
CHICAGO – The nation's largest doctors group isn't sold on President Barack Obama's call for a public health plan and could be a hurdle to his reform efforts.
Dr. Nancy Nielsen says the American Medical Association has "major concerns about government control over health care decisions." Nielsen is president of the AMA, which Obama will address on Monday.
Nielsen said the AMA wants a system that offers "affordable, high quality health insurance." But she said reform of the private insurance market is likely the best way to achieve those goals. She stopped short of saying the AMA will lobby to block Obama's plan. Nielsen said the AMA wants to hear more details.
