<<<The thing I'm worried about is that not enough will be done to educate those who will obtain healthcare insurance through this plan on how to actually use it to keep costs down.>>>

I agree but educating people how to better use available tools more efficiently is different than educating people about how to use tools that are not available to them.

It is a long slog to a better world but we are now one step closer.

>> We made need more primary care facilities to care for the newly insured, and we may need to make it easier for nurses to diagnose and treat illnesses, so doctors don't have to get involved every time someone comes in with a sprain or the flu.<<

And that's exactly why part of this bill expands local healthcare facilities, providing funds for training of new nurses and primary care doctors, and for primary care clinics around the country.
