Art Linkletter of the United Seniors Association: "The so-called Patients' Bill of Rights is not the answer [to improving health-care coverage]. The real solution is not to expand the size, scope and cost of government but to expand individual freedom to choose alternatives. Why doesn't someone in Congress propose a 'Patients' Declaration of Independence'? Congress should give every American more freedom to choose doctors they trust, specialists they need, and prescription drugs they can afford. True security comes from having true freedom - not simply the freedom to sue a health-care provider but the freedom to choose a different, better, more responsive health-care provider to begin with."
