An Indianapolis Doctor's letter to Sen. Bayh about the Bill (Note: Dr. Stephen E. Frazer, MD practices as an Anesthesiologist in Indianapolis , IN )
Here is a letter I sent to Senator Bayh. Feel free to copy it and send it around to all other Representatives. -- Stephen Fraser

Senator Bayh,
As a Practicing Physician I have major concerns with the Health Care Bill before Congress. I actually have read the Bill and am shocked by the brazenness of the Government's proposed involvement in the Patient-Physician Relationship. The very idea that the Government will Dictate and Ration Patient Care is dangerous and certainly not helpful in designing a Health Care System that works for all. Every Physician I work with agrees that we need to fix our Health Care System, but the Proposed Bills currently making their way through Congress will be a Disaster if passed.
I ask you respectfully and as a Patriotic American to look at the following troubling lines that I have read in the Bill. You cannot possibly believe that these Proposals are in the best interests of the Country and our fellow Citizens.
Page 22 of the HC Bill: Mandates that the Govt will Audit Books of All Employers that Self-Insure!!
Page 30 Sec 123 of HC Bill: THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that decides what Treatments/Benefits you get.
Page 29 lines 4-16 in the HC Bill: YOUR HEALTH CARE IS RATIONED!!!

Page 241 Line 6-8 HC Bill: Doctors: It doesn't matter what Specialty you have trained yourself in -- you will all be Paid the same! (Just TRY to tell me that's not Socialism!)
Page 253 Line 10-18 HC Bill: The Govt sets the value of a Doctor's Time, Profession, Judgment, etc. (Literally-- the Value of Humans.)

Page 425 Lines 17-19: The Govt will Instruct and Consult regarding Living Wills, Durable Powers of Attorney, etc. (And it's Mandatory!)
Page 425 Lines 22-25, 426 Lines 1-3: The Govt provides an "Approved" List of End-of-Life Resources; & nbsp; guiding you in death.. (Also called 'Assisted Suicide.')

Senator, I guarantee that I personally will do everything possible to inform patients and my fellow physicians about the dangers of the proposed bills you and your colleagues are debating.
Furthermore, if you Vote for a Bill that enforces Socialized Medicine on the Country and destroys the Doctor-Patient Relationship, I will do everything in my power to make sure you lose your job in the next Election.
Respectfully,
Stephen E. Fraser, MD
