WDT: New Health Panel Rapped

   Let's hope the Governor's panel on health care in the North Country provides the political and professional cover for changes surely to occur as a result of not just Obamacare but changes in the industry in general
    Experts will tell you local factors must be addressed and that the top-down approach from DC is not the only plan.
     The inclusion of elected officials on the new panel provides the needed link to the public although some have criticized this. Let the professionals postulate on it, they say.
      That's a recipe for top-down on the local level.
       Having said that, the Times has a point when the North Country includes varied areas including more wealthy areas like Saratoga County in the eastern areas.
      Even in a region, all things are not equal, but the presence of a varied group may be helpful.
