"Hillarycare" opponents back Obama health program

Institutional opponents to the failed 1993 attempt at a US national health service have pledged $2,000.0 billion in savings over the next  10 years towards making President Barack Obama's plans more achievable.  The American Medical Association, the Pharmaceutical Research and  Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) and America's Health Insurance  Plans, were joined by the American Hospital Association and the  American Medical Technology Association. Most of the groups involved in  the latest venture opposed the 1993 version, dubbed "Hillarycare" after  the then President Bill Clinton's wife, who led the reform effort.
