I've searched Google and cannot find anything that resembles a "ground zero" for this thing. Does anyone know how to get involved in Kitzhaber’s project?

It will be an interesting and exciting debate. I hope Oregonians have the will to step up to the plate. Since Kitz won’t be doing the governor bit, he’ll be focusing on the initiative.

If billing rates were put under price control for specified services, and the services available were somewhat limited (or provided via clinics that only provide applicable services) or provided on "payment supplement" basis, it could be feasable to see in the near future an oregon where basic healthcare could be provided for free or for a minimal fee.
