U S drug agent James Bramble testified that Manuel Noriega helped arrest Ramon Milian Rodriguez, the Medellin cartel money launderer, as prosecutors allege Noriega took bribes to protect cocaine bosses. Bramble said Panamanian forces exposed six U S flights used by Milian Rodriguez, who laundered at least 200 million dollars.

Bush plan seeks universal access via tax credits and caps
The Bush plan would cap federal Medicaid payments at $59 billion with increases tied to population growth inflation and annual percentages through 1997.

Proposals include higher Medicare premiums for the wealthy, a consumer priced health care hive, and allowing small businesses to pool plans.
