In their quest to enact health care reform legislation, Democrats' major challenge is securing the money to pay for greatly expanded insurance coverage and more government regulation in the face of strong Republican opposition and an unsettled private sector. President Barack Obama has emphasized time and again, recently in a letter to Senators Max Baucus (D-MT) and Edward Kennedy (D-MA), that "health care reform must not add to our deficits over the next 10 years — it must be at least deficit neutral and put America on a path to reducing the deficit over time." As the administration and its congressional allies pursue revenue sources to pay the estimated costs of near-universal coverage ($1.2 trillion over a decade), one potential source that Obama has emphasized is an acceleration of government efforts to pursue waste, fraud, and abuse that sap the health care system of billions of dollars every year.
