Which is why the bipartisan paeans to "prevention" in this summer's health care debate have me scratching my head. It's the one reform on which Henry Waxman and John Boehner can join hands. Don't get me wrong: officials are right to say our system is crazily tilted toward paying docs and hospitals for curing people only after they've gotten terribly sick. But when they jump from this to the idea that America's overdue prevention agenda will be the fix for soaring national health costs (and even help pay for expanded coverage), they're blowing smoke.Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:42:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2009/TRAVEL/04/16/burgers.five.to.go/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2009/TRAVEL/04/16/burgers.five.to.go/index.html#cnnSTCTextThirty minutes before Ann's Snack Bar is scheduled to open, about a dozen hungry burger lovers wait outside to taste what The Wall Street Journal dubbed "the best burger in America."Thu, 16 Apr 2009 13:05:00 EDThttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20264463,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnnhttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20264463,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn"They happen to be very verbal girls – and I think that comes from me," says the starTue, 10 Mar 2009 20:39:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/02/19/stroke.fast.food/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/02/19/stroke.fast.food/index.html#cnnSTCTextA person's risk of stroke is associated with the number of fast-food restaurants near their residence, according to a study presented Thursday at a stroke conference in San Diego, California.Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:25:00 ESThttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20256193,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnnhttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20256193,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn"I'll be working out for hours on Sunday," laments the reality TV starMon, 02 Feb 2009 19:06:00 ESThttp://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/12/11/sugar.free.school/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/12/11/sugar.free.school/index.html#cnnSTCTextThe children in the cafeteria drink low-fat milk, shovel corn kernels on their sporks and munch on tuna sandwiches on wheat.Fri, 12 Dec 2008 16:00:00 ESThttp://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/diet.fitness/09/23/cl.cravings.eating/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/diet.fitness/09/23/cl.cravings.eating/index.html#cnnSTCTextIt's been another one of those days: places to go, deadlines to meet, meals to cook.
