The Clinician's Alternative

iCaduceus: Modern Tools for the Eclectic Clinician

 In the United States, we are now at a crossroads. For the last 60 years due to anti-profiteering laws, we have had employer based insurance. Now, Congress is debating a bill to give all Americans access to affordable healthcare. We believe that healthcare is a right and not a privilege. But this right requires forethought by our leaders. In a letter to President Elect Barack Obama at the end of 2008, we explain our thoughts in the matter. We are asking you to right your congressional leaders as well and ask that a national health plan be done well. It should of course include all forms of medicine including coverage for Naturopathic Doctors, Acupuncturists, Chiropractors and others. Emphasis should be put in primary care so that chronic disease can be avoided or caught early while inexpensive treatment options are still available.

At this page you will find a form that you can use to email your congressional representatives and President Obama. Use our shortened letter or write your own but please write.
