Also for market differentiation, no one else can say they can insure their patient’s surgical outcomes.

Topic: Ophthalmology Exchange / Rand Paul for Senate

Putting ideology aside, I wanted to pose a question to the community regarding Rand Paul, an Ophthalmologist who is running for the US Senate in Kentucky. He’s made quite a stir securing Sarah Palin’s endorsement. So regardless of what side of the aisle you are on, would Paul’s election to the Senate help the interests of the eye care community? Is it a news story the community is following?
