This article is rife with copyright issues
This article is rife with copyright issues and needs to be gone over thoroughly, compared to the AHA website and any other sources listed. A quick look showed that this article was taken straight off of the AHA website and other parts looked to be worded in public relations speakease that implied the article needed closer scrutiny. Your average person does not word their language that way, nor usually need the cover of appropriately legal language. The whole article needs to be reviewed but I do not have time, otherwise I would have done so... Stevenmitchell (talk) 13:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Lobbying
Before I add it to the article I did want to put it in here since the The American Hospital Association is a lobbying organization that represents their own (healthcare industry).

They are airing television commercials in my state advising seniors to call and express interest in taxpayer funded programs that are on the verge of being cut to be kept.

That would make the The American Hospital Association a lobbying organization.Woods01 (talk) 23:04, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, I don't think a source is needed for this claim (that lobbying is one of their functions). Other well-known health care industry groups that lobby include the American Medical Association and PhRMA. Jesanj (talk) 02:07, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Rewrite of lede, propose removing news release tag
I have rewritten the lede for tone and phrasing. - - MrBill3 (talk) 03:22, 21 November 2013 (UTC) I think with this rewrite, some of the changes in phrasing and the change of numbers to reflect the source the news release tag can now be removed. The third party tag is close to being ready for removal. I think the healthfinder.gov source although reliable and verified is probably authored by the AHA. If a more third party source can be found (shouldn't be a problem) then that tag can be removed also. - - MrBill3 (talk) 04:28, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
