Despite remarkable technological advances in medicine, there is a great need to devise new models for delivering healthcare. The challenge is to get doctors and patients to come together, to sift through all the complex information and come up with an understanding of the medical condition. This understanding will help the patient know what contributes to a disease such as lifestyle, genetics and environment, and will make it possible for them to research their condition and be better prepared to confront it. David Rosenman, a physician of internal medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, is our special guest. He discusses ways to innovate and collaborate not just with those working within the healthcare profession, but also outside to come up with new ideas. CU Science Update’s correspondent Priscilla Carlson met with Dr. Rosenman where he tells us more about healthcare delivery, understanding the science that improves outcomes, leading to greater patient satisfaction.. Hosted by Ina Damm Muri. Produced by the University of Colorado at Boulder Journalism and Mass Communication students.

- Medicare Tax? Health Care for the Elderly? Let’s look at the facts about the proposed Medicare Tax … and a medical care program for the aged that already exists! What’s the hurry here? The supporters of the proposed Medicare Tax would have you believe that passage of this controversial bill is urgent … that persons over 5 are deprived of needed medical care because they can’t pay for it. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Kerr-Mills Law, passed by Congress in 1960 – enabled individual states to guarantee to every elderly person who needs help the health care he or she requires. We call this health program … Health Opportunity for the Elderly. Thousands of people every day are being helped by its generous benefits. And unlike Medicare, which would substantially increase your Social Security Tax payroll deductions, existing programs are being paid for now by a part of your present tax dollar! Medicare? NO. Health Care for the Elderly? YES! ….. 1964 American Medical Association Ad, A5157.
