    I would love to see global budgets work out for more hospitals.To me the key question is whether hospitals can stop billing patients once they go onto global budgets. Billing patients is of course the root cause of gouging, collection agencies, suing pathetic patients, etc. Besides the ethical ugliness, patient billing requires extra staff that is not cheap.

    I wonder if the hospitals in Pennsylvania just stopped billing Medicare patients, or if they keep on with normal billing as kind of a shadow account.

    Keep us informed about any related cases! thanks

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
