Thursday Links

Posted on April 25, 2024April 24, 2024 by John C. Goodman

Commonwealth Fund finds major differences in health care inputs and outcomes across racial and ethnic groups. It completely ignores the role of genes.

Earth Day good news: Over the past 60 years, GDP is up nearly 800% but emissions are down 60% even though we are still using record amounts of fossil fuels.

New Guinea Prime Minister to Joe Biden: “We are not cannibals.”

Joe Biden promised to never cut Medicare and “to stop” anyone who tries. He just cut benefits for 33 million enrollees in Medicare advantage.

    The article about Biden cutting Medicare benefits has a little political windbagging.

    My understanding is that the administration decided to cut the annual bonus or extra funds that are paid to Medicare Advantage plans.

    That is not what I call a cut to anyone, except the insurers and their CEO’s.

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,
