Obama administration took a little less than a month for the veterinary Governor Sebelius, a long time to avoid the same problems with former Senator Tom Daschle.
But Governor Sebelius could face resistance and Senate Republicans difficult issues that question his support for a greater government role in health care and abortion rights.
so that the health care industry can expect Sebelius as HHS chief?
based on his record as governor and Kansas insurance commissioner, Sebelius shares much of the vision of President Obama on health reform as the expansion of children's health insurance program with child health insurance the state and give more Americans access to Medicaid.
Governor Sebelius has also proven to stand the industry of health insurance. As insurance commissioner, she blocked the purchase of Kansas largest insurer by another company. All went to the Kansas Supreme Court, the decision was finally confirmed Sebelius and the sale was stopped.
Sebelius has also been praised for the fight against health plans ration care and the fight against health care providers to meet the patients initially wrote the Times article.
other, as Kansas Governor Sebelius has been unable to push all the reform policies of health care because of fierce resistance from Republican lawmakers.
But at the federal level, Sebelius will benefit from a Democratic majority in both houses of Congress, which definitely things a bit easier than in Kansas.
To summarize, the Governor Sebelius will stand up with health insurance companies, to be a strong consumer advocate and push for a greater government role in health care and insurance.
We resist the cliché magician of Oz.
