State of the Union update:

Looks like Bush is going to press the medical malpractice insurance issue. Among the guests for tonight’s State of the Union address:

Two doctors hurt by malpractice insurance costs: Kurt Kooyer, a pediatrician who relocated from Mississippi to West Fargo, N.D., because of rising liability costs and who helps provide health care to underprivileged families, and Denise Baker, a Bradenton, Fla., obstetrician/gynecologist who stopped delivering babies last fall because her insurance expenses exceeded her salary.



This issue is going to get hot.
