Doctors in the field uneasy over Mrs. Clinton's role

Article Abstract:

Physicians have expressed doubts that Hillary Rodham Clinton, head of Pres Clinton's health care policy team, can be an effective health care reformer without a medical degree. While some praise her background and accomplishments in social policy and the law, others fear that a lawyer may take the wrong tack in policymaking. Many physicians are critical that organized medicine has not yet played a substantial role in ongoing reform negotiations.

Physicians who own their own practices are especially worried that expenses such as new equipment and employee training will be too costly.
