Healthcare Reform, is it Dirty Laundry?

Like the great Don Henley once wrote, "people love it when you lose, they love dirty laundry". It's crazy isn't it. Why are we so drawn to "dirt"? The O.J. trial, Anna Nicole, and now Michael Jackson. While I feel as I'm a professional in my industry, I get consumed by this dirt.

Now it's healthcare reform. While it's a work in progress, I find myself in the same mindset, being consumed by media every time I hear those two words. It's all over the radio (I love talk radio), CNN, CNBC, FOX, you name it. Healthcare reform is "my dirt". Not only will it affect all of us when it's done, it will affect those of us who call the industry home. Healthcare workers, healthcare vendors, healthcare students and of course physicians. One day I'm mad about it, and another day I'm glad about it. But one thing is constant - I'm consumed by it.

Maybe I'll get lucky and some new dirt will come my way soon. "I want a new drug" - thanks Huey Lewis, and R.I.P Jakko...
