Trump releases rule forcing hospitals and insurers to disclose negotiated rates or face fines

The Trump administration released a plan Friday that would force hospitals and insurers to disclose their negotiate rates or risk being fined.

The administration already requires hospitals to publish list prices, sometimes referred to as “sticker prices.” That doesn’t always reflect what someone with insurance might pay. The rule presented Friday, expected to be enacted in 2021, will go further by requiring hospitals to also post the prices paid by various insurance plans.

President Donald Trump is expected to discuss his transparency rules for hospitals and insurers Friday afternoon in a Roosevelt Room event.

The rule begins a “new era” in price transparency in health care, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar told reporters on a conference call. “This shadowy system has to change. The patient has to be in control.”

Hospitals will need to post their standard charges for services, including the negotiated rates with insurers and the discounted price a hospital is willing to accept directly from a patient if paid in cash, administration officials said. Hospitals will also need to publish the same information for at least 300 “shoppable services,” such as X-rays or lab tests.

Matt Eyles, president and CEO of America’s Health Insurance Plans, said Friday that the group supports “clear, consistent and concise information that is customized to an individual’s circumstances.”

“Transparency should aid and support patient decision-making, should not undermine competitive negotiations that lower patients’ health care costs, and should put downward pressure on premiums for consumers and employers,” Eyles said.

...standard charges for services...

You guys pay for medical care? Huh?
What's it like? Are you afraid to get sick? Does being afraid of getting sick make you sick?

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

Imagine you lived in a country with clearly defined borders...
With a national identity...
And prosperity and security for it's citizens...
And fair wages for workers that aren't exploited by rootless cosmopolitan, globalist, neo-liberal parasites...

Imagine...

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one...

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

...or you could live in a 88/Seater/EAP/ fantasy-land where there's a price tag on everything and everything's for sale...even culture and identity...

Imagine...

John was a dirty hippie maggot.
At least George was a Hare Krishna. I can live with that.
Paul was the whimsical one.
And Ringo was just an ugly hanger-on.

No respect for John. He left his wife Cynthia, a real stunning blonde, for a hideous Yoko creature who had more body hair than a sasquatch.

Is there anyone on this board who would take Yoko over say a young Kevin Bacon?

Good. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. His "please don't impeach me act" is very funny. He should keep it up.

Fuck you.

Ass, gass or grass, nobody rides for free.
There's no such thing as a free lunch.

The cost is hidden (like with Native health care, or socialized medicine) or the cost is spelled out -- but everyone pays, except illegals and the dead.

Bernie would have as much luck passing his reforms as Obama did. The only thing which matters to the US is keeping the spice flowing to Israel. The only way any of that passes in a meaningful form is if it ties into the security of Israel.

You just called Cynthia, Kevin Bacon? Or was that a mod rewrite? She's more ' The Way We Were'.

Cynthia was John's 'Waitey Katie'. John wore the pants and wielded the belt/fists. Then John met Yoko. Like most of those, Yoko wore the pants and wielded the power.

What within the subtlety of George's conversion versus John's appropriations offends you most? if you can live with George, but not John?

Wow, your a lot deeper than I initially thought.

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

Don't try and retcon it. You fucked up...just let it go. I doubt many people saw it or will linger on it.

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

That's just a sample from my "writer's workshop"...

Never liked "imagine".
Sure it's melodic and beautiful,
But I despise the left.
And john was a one world government kinda guy.
George was a peaceful hindu.
I always preferred "while my guitar gently weeps"
The collaboration on those guitars with Clapton is still stunning today.
Too bad he had designs on his wife.
I can only assume that george wasn't deeply in love, cause eric and him remained good friends.
