Insured Americans have been getting ripped off for years.

South Carolina has had government permission slips needed to start or expand a healthcare business. The state just repealed almost all of them- how?

Massachusetts is considering expanding exchange health insurance subsidies up to 500% FPL ($150,000 for a family of four). Here are eight reasons that would be a bad idea.

Many patients want to see any doctor they would like regardless of where they are located, but state laws often don't allow this option over telehealth. When Florida and Idaho allowed it, did it result in a spike of complaints about out-of-state doctors?

The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services released a report touting the national uninsured rate reached an all-time low of 8% with only 26.4 million Americans still lacking coverage.

Since the end of 2020, prices at the pump have nearly doubled across America. Yet even more tragically, the cost of getting to the doctor’s office has also doubled. States need to reinstate pandemic era rules that allow doctors to freely offer interstate telehealth as part of the solution.

Some major hospitals and insurers are trying to hide behind state laws to prevent price transparency required under new federal regulations and law.

Why should the exact same treatment for pneumonia cost $5,000 in one building and $124,000 in another? Why should patients pay so much more, simply based on where they park their cars? How can policymakers reverse the tide? A promising new reform called Right to Shop is showing the way.

By Patrick Ishmael & Josh Archambault - The U.S. Supreme Court prohibited Congress and the Obama administration from holding medicaid funding hostage, yet that has not stopped HHS from using Medicaid waivers as sticks of blackmail rather than carrots of consensus. The appetite for cooperative federalism has already dampened and would be dampened considerably more if states can only pray that the federal government doesn’t alter deals any further.

The Obama administration has worked for years to lure states into accepting Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion under the false promise of “flexibility.” The latest fight with Florida over Low Income Pool (LIP) funding should disabuse any state leaders of that false notion.
