Large hospital systems are profiting off Medicare rules that pay them more for the same service than independent practices.
That means a senior in my district can pay MORE for an X-ray at a hospital than at a local doctor’s office -- and the hospital makes MORE too.
Today I asked hospital system CEOs a simple question: should we equalize payments to lower costs and expand access? They said no.
Americans deserve affordable care, not a system that rewards higher prices.
