The contest pits two major companies, Edwards Lifesciences and Medtronic. Analysts estimate a market for the product that could exceed $1.5 billion within six years. But if the valves catch on, their benefits for the nation’s aging population could be substantial — even if the impact on the nation’s health care bill may be hard to calculate.

The new valves — which make it possible to repair the heart without the rigors of chest-opening surgery — have been available in Europe for about 18 months, with sales of about $100 million split about evenly last year between the two companies. While doctors say that the early results have been promi ... Read more »

The annual survey of state Medicaid directors, conducted for the Kaiser Family Foundation’s Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured, found that the program had been spared the worst effects of massive state budget shortfalls because of federal aid in the stimulus package. But it also revealed grave concerns about what will happen when that relief dries up at the close of 2010.

As unemployment surged, enrollment in state Medicaid programs grew by an average of 5.4 percent in the previous fiscal year, the highest rate in six years, according to the Kaiser survey. In eight states, the growth exceeded 10 percent.

Last year’s average growth was well above the 3.6 percent that had been forecast by the ... Read more »

Under the bill, the government would help low- and middle-income people buy insurance by providing subsidies in the form of tax credits.

The bill, written by the chairman of the Finance Committee, Senator ... Read more »

For starters, there are the Bosnians, riven into two barely functioning administrative entities, a Bosnian Serb Republic and a Muslim-Croat Federation. If they have dreams left 14 years after war killed 100,000 people and reduced millions to refugees, those dreams center on Europe.

But, while Sarajevo is a mere hour's flight from Vienna, or Rome, the distance is hard to cover. With little progress on reforms, Bosnians were left out of a recent plan to free up visas for Balkan visitors to the European Union.

Standing outside the Austrian Embassy, Nedeljko Maric, a 42-year-old engineer, pondered the visa he finally secured to travel in Europe. It took two long visits, and a week for his papers to be processed. He feels "a second class citizen," with Bosnian membership of the E.U. "more a dream than a reality."

Whether his plight, and the vacuum of Bosnia's sour politics, eases depends in part on the outcome of the vote Friday in Ireland - another place that knows the ... Read more »

SARAJEVO — In Bosnia and Herzegovina - scene of Europe's bloodiest recent war, and an alternately wild, entrancing, and deeply divided place - the need for sharper, more focused European foreign policy could hardly be clearer.

For starters, there are the Bosnians, riven into two barely functioning administrative entities, a Bosnian Serb Republic and a Muslim-Croat Federation. If they have dreams left 14 years after war killed 100,000 people and reduced millions to refugees, those dreams center on Europe.

WASHINGTON —  Georgia claims that an EU-commissioned report concludes that Russian troops were responsible for ethnic cleansing during last year's war with Georgia.

A Georgian official briefed by a European Union investigator on the report's findings, said Tuesday that the report also concludes that some Russian combat troops crossed into Georgian territory in South Ossetia before the start of hostilities on the night of Aug. 7, 2008.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the briefing ahead of the report's expected release Wednesday. Both sides want to use the report's findings to bolster their claims about the war.

Georgia has claimed— and Russia has denied— that Georgia launched an offensive to repel Russian forces that had crossed into its territory.

MADRID —  Spanish police say narcotics investigators have found $6.3 million in cash buried in a shanty town on the island of Mallorca.

The National Police say authorities trying to break up a drug ring used heavy construction equipment to rip up the concrete floor of a shack in the city of Palma and found seven boxes with the euros, plus 17 pounds of jewelry and gems and $8,000.

A police statement issued Tuesday said one of the boxes was buried under a dog house in a patio of the home.

The money and other valuables were unearthed during a series of raids that began Sept. 18 in a shanty town called Son Banya.

Police also seized undisclosed amounts of heroin, cocaine and marijuana.

Iran has notified the Swiss government that it can have access to three Americans who have been detained in Iran since being arrested for illegal entry in late July, FOX News confirmed.

"Our goal is to ensure the safe return of all our missing and unjustly detained American citizens to the United States as quickly as possible so that they can be reunited with their families," a U.S. official told FOX News.

"We would welcome a decision by the Iranian government to grant consular access to Josh Fattal, Shane Bauer and Sarah Shourd, following our repeated requests."

The move could be seen as a conciliatory gesture on Iran's part, coming ahead of a meeting between Iran and five world powers seeking to persuade Tehran to abandon any effort to build nuclear weapons. The Swiss gover ... Read more »

ROME —  Italy's foreign minister says his government isn't preparing an exit strategy for Italian troops in Afghanistan but that more money must be spent to help win the trust of the people.

Earlier this month some politicians, including a fellow minister in Premier Silvio Berlusconi's government, called for Italy's soldiers to come home soon after six troops were killed in a Kabul bomb blast.

Foreign Minister Franco Frattini also told parliament's foreign affairs commission Tuesday that there can be dialogue with Taliban who renounce violence and don't have any ties with Al Qaeda.

Italy sent 2,800 troops to help with Afghan reconstruction. Frattini says more reconstruction funds are vital to "conquer the hearts and trust" of Afghanistan's people.

CONAKRY, Guinea —  Soldiers reeking of alcohol menaced Guinea's capital Tuesday, a day after the military's presidential guard shot at pro-democracy demonstrators in the West African country, leaving at least 157 people dead, a human rights group said.

The soldiers fired into the air as they roamed the deserted streets of the normally bustling capital. Guinea's military leader, who rose to power in a December coup, said Monday's violence was beyond his control.

Dr. Chierno Maadjou with the Guinean Organization for Defense of Human Rights said 157 people had been killed and more than 1,200 wounded on Monday.

An Associated Press reporter said he saw halls full of wounded patients at the city's large Donka Hospital, some with bullet wounds, others who appeared to have been beaten.

Opposition politician Mutarr Diallo said he witnessed soldiers raping women with rifle butts d ... Read more »

MANILA, Philippines —  Two U.S. Navy construction troops and a Philippines marine were killed Tuesday in a roadside blast in the southern Philippines that officials said was likely an attack by suspected Al Qaeda-linked militants.

It was believed to be just the second time U.S. soldiers have been killed in the southern Philippines in violence blamed on the Abu Sayyaf group since American counterterrorism troops were deployed to the region in 2002, and the first fatalities in seven years.

One Philippine marine also was killed and two others were wounded in the blast on Jolo island, a poor, predominantly Muslim region where the Americans have been providing combat training and weapons to Filipino troops battling the Abu Sayyaf.

A 24th France Telecom employee has killed himself in what the company says is a "suicide spiral."

The 51-year-old father-of-two hurled himself to his death from a bridge onto a busy road in the Haute-Savoie region of the country.

In a letter to his wife, he blamed the unbearable "atmosphere" at his workplace.

France Telecomhas been dogged by a series of suicides in the last 18 months.

The deaths include a woman who jumped from her office window in the summer, while another man survived stabbing himself in the stomach during a work meeting.

Unions say a drive to restructure the company in the face of the global recession is behind the deaths.

The company laid off 22,000 workers between 2006 and 2008 while staff say changing working practices and poor management have placed intolerable pressure on workers.

Labour minister Xavier Darcos this m ... Read more »
