Single Payer

Belo Horizonte, Brazil

I can't help but express my satisfaction to see APA leaders moving more clearly toward supporting a single-payer insurance system in the United States as described in your June 16 issue. That issue recounted the annual meeting speech of APA President Steven Sharfstein, M.D., who advocated such a plan.
