13 Years Later, Government Still Makes Health Care Too Expensive

from The Ed Morrissey Show

Why does Medicare pay two different rates for the same procedures? Dr. Richard Kube of Prairie Spine & Pain Institute of Peoria, Illinois explains how government sets incentives that eliminate patient choice and forces independent providers to pack up. Thirteen years after ObamaCare, the problems are only getting worse -- but some common sense changes could at least start us on the path of real reform.
