Everyone else is weighing in (or screaming), so it's no great surprise that a coalition of 14 groups representing half a million doctors announced a new ad campaign Monday calling on Congress to get cracking on health care reform.

"The status quo is unacceptable," said James Rohack, M.D., president of the American Medical Association, in a statement. "America has the best health care in the world, but it's out of reach for too many people because they lack health insurance. Physicians are joining together to encourage Congress to seize this year's opportunity to make real improvements to the health system for patients and physicians."

The organizations sponsoring the ad include the AMA, The American Academy of Pediatrics, The American College of Physicians, The American Osteopathic Association, Doctors for America, the National Medical Association and the National Physicians Alliance.

"As a physician on the front lines of health care, I know that the system is broken, and if we do nothing, it will get worse," said Mandy Krauthamer, M.D., executive director of Doctors for America.
