The idea of nominating Harvard Medical School professor Donald Berwick to head the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services first came up a few weeks ago, but now it's official: President Obama nominated Berwick yesterday. I've been a bit of a fan since I first saw his "Escape Fire" video several years ago:
He still has to be confirmed by the Senate, which may be no easy feat. I personally don't see why Berwick, who heads the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, couldn't do the job pretty darn well.
