I believe repeal of COPN is necessary for Virginians to receive a better and more efficient health care.  Current law creates barrier to entry which stifles competition and allows the parties which are "IN" to operate in a monoplistic fashion.  

These parties mostly consist of hospitals are against repeal of COPN law often plead proverty, which is not true.  In the newspaper, we know most of the Virginian hosptial system are profitable.  How does it make sense when the hospitals which pleads proverty pay their executive exordinary amount of compensation up to $6 million.

We also know hospital system can charge much higher rate usually at 3-4X the going rate of a private practice groups for the same care.  It is time to be true and to work work for the common folks.  Keep a law that is a big part of someone's $6 million paycheck is unethical and un-American.
