Survey: Central Ohio Doctors pessemistic about health reform

An online survey conducted by the Columbus Dispatch and WBNS-TV in Columbus, with the assistance of the Ohio State Medical Association, found that nearly three-quarters of Central Ohio doctors who responded expressed pessimism about the impact of federal health on health-care delivery (Source: “Doctors wary of changes in health care,” Columbus Dispatch, July 18, 2010).

Seventy-eight doctors responded to the online survey and 58 (74 percent) said health-care delivery will be “somewhat worse” or “much worse” after health reform. The results of the survey are not scientific.
