Re: "The bill set up a Board to Decide what procedures and medication is covered and what is not rather than spelling it out in a contract." No. It sets up a board of medical experts to examine the macro-data and advise about cost/effectiveness of the various and sundry treatment options. (For example: does the data support the contention that, for a particular condition, SURGICAL INTERVENTION has a better outcome, or does a DRUG TREATMENT REGIMEN?) Doctors still responsible (as per usual) for their patients... but I see nothing wrong with advisory information drawn from a panel of medical and accounting folks designed to recommend improvements to the system.
