Claudia Fegan -- "Universal Health Care: Facts & Fallacies"

Democracy for America at Quenchers

Guest Speaker: Claudia Fegan, MD. "Universal Health Care -- Facts & Fallacies"
Tuesday, November 1, 7pm
Quenchers Saloon, 2401 N. Western Avenue, Chicago
RSVP: DFA-LINK.ORG
This is the best crash course on universal health care you'll ever take! Claudia Fegan is a master de-bunker of propaganda designed to demonize universal health care. Come and get the real facts from a compelling, dynamic speaker. You'll learn what you need to know to make the case for universal health care and to educate voters.

Claudia M. Fegan, MD, left her successful private practice of 15 years to join Cook County's Bureau of Health Services in August of 2000. She currently serves as medical director for the Fantus Health Center, with over 300,000 patient visits a year, one of the largest outpatient clinics in the country. Prior to joining Fantus, Dr. Fegan was an attending physician at Michael Reese Hospital & Medical Center, where she served as Medical Director and as a member of the Board of Directors.

Dr. Fegan speaks extensively throughout the U.S. and Canada about the impact of Corporatization on the delivery of health care. She recently authored Universal Healthcare: What the United States Can Learn From the Canadian Experience, published by the New Press in 1998.

DFA at Quenchers meets the first Tuesday of every month at 7pm. Our goals are to 1.) Create a strong network of informed, trained political activists, 2) Support progressive candidates at all levels, and 3) Pass a statewide referendum for universal healthcare in 2006.
