President Bush's comprehensive health reform program.

To deal with the shortcomings of the current U.S. health care system, President Bush has proposed a comprehensive reform package that would offer tax credits and deductions to low- and middle-income Americans to purchase private insurance, reform small market insurance to ensure availability and portability of insurance, allow creation of Health Insurance Networks to allow small businesses and nonprofit organizations to pool their purchasing power, reduce administrative costs, and control the growth of government health programs. Combined, the proposals would build on the strengths of the present private/public system and preserve consumer choice and free market discipline.

Approaches for reducing cancer mortality in minorities.

There is an urgent need to reduce cancer mortality among black Americans and other minorities. Although much progress has been made, cancer statistics are not as positive for these groups and the medically-underserved populations. Getting Americans to change their behavior patterns--particularly with regard to cigarette smoking--is vitally important. In this regard, physicians and other health care professionals, as well as public and government officials, must speak out. Early detection of risk factors is also critical. Government has an obligation to make Americans aware of how to reduce adverse health indicators and of making individuals responsible for their own life as well as for the lives of their family members.
