luded in any piece of healthcare legislation is tort reform, which was selected by 92 percent of the physicians Jackson interviewed.

Other key elements physicians want included in legislation:

 
  • Private insurance industry reform, including the elimination of pre-existing condition refusals, the elimination of dropped coverage (except in instances of fraud) and portability (78 percent)

 
  • Allow professional, trade and industry associations, including Chambers of Commerce, to provide healthcare insurance to member groups (67 percent)

 
  • Allow individuals to opt-out of Medicare or their employer-sponsored plan, and provide credits for them to purchase a plan on the individual market (61 percent)
