Information, so they know which providers are at or below the Reference Price and you need to arm them with the quality information, how often are these providers performing these procedures . What is their volume, what are their outcomes . It would be really unfair to implement a Reference Price if you arent going to arm them with that kind of information. That goes into the next one, which is consumer education. I think there will be case study examples of how informing your employee population and educating consumers about the price and the quality and that and the correlation between the two will be really very important because you dont want consumers to get into a got you situation where they didnt know that someone was above the Reference Price and now they have a pretty extreme financial out of pocket liability.

House, there was a meeting of the rules committee that night, democrats were in charge, i presented myself to that meeting with 18 amendments to senate bill h. R. 3590. House bill 3590 that had been passed by the senate. Every one of those was summarily rejected. The problem the democrats had that day was should we change a single word in h. R. 3590 as passed by the senate that the bill would have to go back to the senate and concur with the house amendment to 3590 . The majority leader in the senate having lost his 60th vote in a special election in massachusetts that year, felt he could not pass anything. He could not achieve cloture with only 59 democrats to vote in favor of that motion for cloture. Thats the reason why not one word was changed between Christmas Eve 2009 and the time this bill was actually passed. But if h. R. 3590, after it came back from the senate, came to the rules committee, did it come to the house under an open rule . No, it did no. It was a closed rule. We w
An inquiry to various city agencies asking them to participate in the working group to consult with each other on implementation issues with the noise laws in the city. In my district i have had many constituents contact my office with noise complaints. And after reporting those to the department of Public Health, my office found that many city agencies have overlapping authority over different aspects of the law and making it difficult to figure out who is supposed to enforce what. Furthermore, Technology Improvements to how noise is understood and measured having evolved since the ordinance was last revised. The purpose of the working group will be to suggest potential solutions to improve how the manage noise issues within our city family. I expect that will come with this time limited working group to make recommendations for revisions to existing noise ordinance and or develop citywide policies to guide interpretation and implementation of the existing law. The rest i submit. Than
