Public-Private Coalitions, and How to Fix Healthcare

2022/11/23

The U.S. doesn’t have universal healthcare, as most industrialized countries do. Most of us get health benefits through employers. Why? In World War II, the government slapped wage controls on corporations. To lure workers, companies began offering healthcare benefits. After the war, an effort to create a national healthcare system was met with resistance. Fierce Healthcare writer Frank Diamond talks with Elizabeth Mitchell, the president and CEO of the Purchaser Business Group on Health. It is a

Charity Care Policies, and Fierce's Women of Influence

2022/11/09

Nonprofit hospitals in the U.S. are required to provide community benefits as a condition of their tax exemption status. But research suggests those dollars represent only about 2% or 3% of the total expenses that hospitals report. Some say this isn’t enough to warrant the tax breaks they enjoy.  Fierce Healthcare's Dave Muoio talks with Dr. Christopher Goodman from Prisma Health. He and his co-authors reviewed hospitals’ charity care policies from 2019 to 2021 to track changes in charity care

Oftentimes, healthcare resources are inadequate in Black neighborhoods because of a history of redlining and other discriminatory practices.
