Why does prior authorization take so long? The clinical review? Takes 10 minutes. The delay? That’s the point. Every day your claim sits in “pending” is a day the insurer holds your premium, invests it, and earns float income. Warren Buffett called it the greatest business

The numbers are so outrageous they don’t even register for most people. $125B in subsidies to large consolidated hospital systems. Systems that already enjoy a non competitive landscape due to the ban on physician ownership and certificate of need laws. Yet despite a lack

Every year, the United States Government gives $40 billion to insurance companies. And that’s just the start. The Official Story: When you buy health insurance on the Obamacare marketplace, the government helps in two ways: 1. They lower your monthly payment (premium

The implosion of the Pac-12 isn't really working for anyone, except the Oregon Ducks. I took a deep dive into travel, on-field performance, and the struggles. It's not pretty. Column: bit.ly/4oZmfVJ

One of my biggest regrets was voting for President Obama in 2008 as a medical student & celebrating the passage of the ACA Little did I know the carnage it would wreck on the medical profession and my future patients. I had no idea then that the ACA was written to strip

This is a core, fundamental disagreement I have with central planners who want zero cost-sharing healthcare: a belief that a handful of experts can define "high value" care and use financial tools to nudge patients towards better health. This is FA Hayek's "fatal conceit."

3. If the ACA wants to survive its own success, it needs to fix the payment model. Reward retention, verified coverage, and care continuity — not raw sign-ups. Otherwise, “access” becomes a game of musical chairs paid for by taxpayers. Dutch Rojas Ge Bai

American Health Insurance is legalized racketeering. It’s a scam American doctor calls the hospital to get self pay pricing for a patient for pregnancy care Hospital response: “If they're self-pay, they give them a package price which would include the delivery and all of the

Wall Street Apes America in a nutshell: paying cash is cheaper than using the insurance you’re forced to buy. We don’t have a healthcare system, we have a shakedown operation with paperwork.

If healthcare is too expensive for people to afford to pay themselves, then it’s too expensive for taxpayers to afford. Taking money from someone and running it through the government doesn’t make healthcare cheaper. The median American has $17k taken from their paycheck every

I want a system that delivers affordable quality healthcare to Americans without the fear of bankruptcy. I also am vehemently against Medicare for all. Medicare for All sounds simple until you realize what centralizing one sixth of the economy actually means. I do not want
