Administration issues new rules that health economists believe will toss another 2 million patients off their insurance. My favorite is the non-network health plan where the consumer has perform a Texas Two-Step of asking the insurer what they'll pay for a medical service, then call around town looking for a doctor that will accept the insurer's pricing. The conservative Paragon Health Institute assures that consumers will find this empowering and not a pain in the ass. Health economist warn to brace for the return of "Surprise Billing", also known as unlimited price gouging.

Glad I'm on traditional Medicare and don't have a for-profit health insurance CEO between me and my doctor.

I posted on the Macro board before I saw this. Our insurer - Caresource - is pulling out. That’s a problem for us. They were the only one with all our doctors. Hopefully we can retain a doctor or two when we have to switch providers for 2027…assuming there is a provider.
