Dear colleagues,

The NBER Reporter features a program report each issue. The purpose of
the report is to let non-specialists know what the program has been up
to. It is widely disseminated -- thousands of people receive hard
copies of the Reporter, and many more access the version posted on the
web. The health care program's turn has come up; the last one was
nearly 5 years ago, and the new one will be due by he end of this year.
Although I will be working from a list of the working papers of program
members, it is easy to overlook some of the excellent work that program
members have done. To ensure that I don't overlook your work, please
let me know if there is anything that you would like me to highlight in
the report. And also let me know what makes it important in terms that
I can use to describe it to non-specialists. Including abstracts or
some background text would be most helpful. Your prompt reply would be
greatly appreciated. To be included, I will need the material by
December 15. Thanks,

Alan
