Steve Anderson has posted the Health Wonk Review for February 15, 2018: Going for the Gold Edition at HealthInsurance.org blog. It’s an entertaining and wide-ranging smorgasbord of health policy topics of the day.
Here are a few of the topics d’jour:
- Amazon/Bershire Hathaway/PMorgan’s foray into healthcare
- Unexpected ER bills
- CMS attack on freedom of the press
- Predictions about Alex Azar, newly appointed HHS Secretary
- The ACA
- Peruvian healthcare
- A different kind of hospital coverage
- A recap of Health Action 2018, Families USA’s annual meet for healthcare activists.
If you aren’t familiar with healthinsurance.org, you should be. Check out the impressive roster of contributing authors and the excellent state health guides.
And just a heads up: In 2018, Health Wonks are on a once-per month schedule so catch this issue – you won’t have a chance for more wonkery until March.
