Discussion on Single-Payer Health System Slated12:42PM / Friday, March 27, 2009
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — A public discussion on the concept of a single-payer health care system will be held at Wednesday, April 1, at 7 p.m. at First Congregational Church on Main Street.
Sponsored by the church's Meeting House Group and the Center for Community Engagement at Williams College, it will include a PowerPoint presentation by Dr. Michale Kaplan, followed by commentary by Dr. Robert Hertzig and mental health professional Paul Gitterman.
The audience will be allowed to ask questions and make comments; there will also be an effort to organize locally to advocate for a single-payer system in Massachusetts.
This follows a community health care discussion on Jan. 6, at which most participants favored a single-payer approach. Results of that meeting were forwarded to the Obama Transition Team. Results of the April 1 meeting will also be sent to the administration in Washington and to local and state representatives.
The crisis in health care in the United States is one of the touchstone issues for the Obama administration, which has asked for public input for its decision making.
