If people lose confidence in your hospital, they will quit coming there.

One of the reasons we have such confidence in our medical system is because of our board system.

I would think that just should be policy; we shouldn't need a law to do that.

Well, my commitment to ensuring VA providers adhere to professional standards compelled me to introduce H.R. 4059.

But at the end of the day, we still have, as medical staff people, the patient's safety and quality of care is upmost.

Quality of care has been an issue for years, long before there was a computer chip.

I don't know why Mr. Williamson was ever needed to go out.

I will respectfully disagree with Mr. Williamson.

That needs to change.

We make laws because people are not doing their job, and their unnecessary.

ACOG enthusiastically endorses H.R. 3642 and we urge Committee to include this legislation in the broader VA health reform effort.

We are concerned with not only the vagueness of some language, but that the discretion in implementing major portions are left up to the Secretary.
