The “Right Thing” for Physicians
Physician incentives have been much ballyhooed as an alignment tool to move providers closer together with electronic health records under the ARRA in the next several years. But, there is money available right now for physicians to “do the right thing” for their patients from other governmental programs.
$1 Trillion …. What Do You Think?
To what extent has healthcare reform become intertwined with the stimulus efforts to get the economy moving forward? Oh, let’s just say, about $1T over the next ten years -- $848B in the current Senate bill, and about $1.1T in the approved House bill. What’s a trillion dollars among friends anyway?
Let’s Focus on the Basics
According to a recently published American Hospital Association (AHA) report, at the 5,010 community hospitals in the United States, profits were down 61% in 2008 compared to the prior year. Still, some $17B in profits were recorded.
