Medical Association Hoping for Healthcare Reform
Anne Kelly
11/5/2008
The North Dakota Medical Association says it welcomes any change in the current healthcare system.

The NDMA says North Dakota has some of the highest quality, lowest cost healthcare in the country, but it looks forward to some of Obama`s ideas for healthcare reform.

"We do think that we`re the model for the rest of the county and they can change more along the lines that we already have," says Dr. Robert Thompson, the president of the ND Medical Association. "And I think with a Democratic president I think we`re going to see perhaps more government solutions or attempts by the government to regulate and so forth."

Thompson says healthcare is already highly regulated, but if the right types of regulations are enforced, he says he believes healthcare quality will improve.
