I want to record that I do not accept medical inflation of 9%. To paraphrase John Donne, nobody lives on an island entirely unto itself. When everything else is reducing in price the cost of medical care should be reducing also. In a more general sense, that is why we are trying to cut the cost of care as opposed to cutting the service.
