As the Democrats promote violence towards our Military and the left idolizes them we can expect more killing.

Academics will blame everyone but themselves for what they did to their own institutions.

You want the vast majority of Americans to pay higher taxes to finance direct transfers to health insurance companies so people with ACA exchange plans will have 85% of their premium subsidized rather than 75%. This is very unfair to people with employer plans. I’m a hard no.

Only 827 physicians in the entire United States hold an equity stake in a hospital. Out of ~1.1 million physicians, that’s 0.07%. There are only 238 physician-owned hospitals in the entire country (out of 6,093 total hospitals). Now… let’s talk about the endlessly recycled

Mark Cuban hopefully others can add to this In a small private practice like mine, cash-basis accounting is the only system that makes sense because revenue is completely unpredictable. I do not get paid when I do the work. I only get paid when an insurer releases the funds. If

Alex, the US taxpayer rarely pays doctors directly. They typically send money to states (Medicaid) Hospitals and Providers(traditional Medicare), to insurance carriers (MA and ACA), and indirectly through tax savings for individuals and employers ) You are right that we

This is one of the more impactful comments from yesterday’s exchange…. Take a moment to read Sanjeev Dixit and Ge Bai Dr. Dixit points to how Hospitals can write off unpaid care at chargemaster rates — numbers untethered from real cost — and those inflated “losses” support their

This is a small window into the rot of the modern biomedical system. This NPR segment gets it completely backwards. We’re told that a breast cancer researcher at Harvard is losing a third of her staff because of funding cuts. What the story doesn’t say: she is 76 years old,

Some key corrections: 1. The ACA subsidies are permanent & continue after 2025 2. The issue is COVID-era bonuses to insurers 3. This bill would not affect premiums, just the enrollee and taxpayer share 4. Special interests want more subsidies & are lobbying hard for an extension
