ObamaCare Pushes Big Medical Practice Changes

“More than half the doctors are now working for hospitals and other institutions, rather than in private practice. Hospitals are using their new doctor employees to get more money out of Medicare. The other major unintended consequence is the boost to consumer-directed health care.  The cheapest plans are going to have deductibles of $5,000 or more. Millions of patients are going to be buying care with their own money, rather than with a third-party payer’s money.  Accenture predicts the number of walk-in clinics is going to double in the next few years.  They are doing what the ACOs are unlikely to do: lowering costs, increasing quality, and improving access to care.”
