I'm real sorry to hear about your daughter, Gene, but the real problem, 
actually, or a big portion of it IS government getting involved.

Government is who has made it near impossible for the local level to correct 
a problem.  The government has put some many, quite frankly, stupid 
regulations AND protect-the-insurance-companies-at-any-costs and 
protect-big-pharma-at-any-cost regulations in place, that it is a miracle 
that anyone survives a hospital stay.

I know, I worked in a few!  And they are only getting worse, not better as 
there are more and more government regulations.

Sorry, a little less bureucracy, a little less good-ol-boy networking in 
government and a little more old-fashioned tar and feathering would do the 
trick.

Doctors rarely loose their licenses.  Insurance companies kill people 
routinely.  Big pharma kills hundreds of people very year.  And, they all 
get a free pass!

Regulations haven't saved anyone.  Just made the select few richer!
