The return of 'death panels'? - The Week
Sarah Palin memorably labeled an end-of-life counseling option in the Obama health care reform plan as "death panels," fueling an uproar that led Democrats to withdraw the measure.

Under the policy, Medicare will pay for doctors to advise patients on end-of-life care, including the option to forego aggressive treatments.
