Lots of them. * Use footnotes to cite others work, claims of specific numbers, performance. benefits, costs, etc. Even your own. Do ALOT of this!!! * Did I say to use lots of footnotes???? And NOT endnotes - put the footnotes at the bottom of each page. * If you include any charts in the main body - keep them very simple and explain everything in them. Anything more than a very few simple charts - put in an appendix. * I would recommend any and all technical details in an appendix, etc. * Different - but I suggest that you use 12 font times-roman, double spaced text for the main body A bit more meaty items: * Talk to consumer/public benefits. * Talk to costs to implement for providers/carriers/public. * Talk to policy perspective vs technical perspective. Refer to techie talk in your main body but put all techie details in appendix. If you have a short clear pr=C3=A9cis (redundant terms - but I wanted to emphasize the point) put that in a footnote and details in appendix.
