The OBBB & Idaho Hospitals with Brian Whitlock

Brian Whitlock is the executive director of the Idaho Hospital Association and came in to discuss the effects of the One Big Beautiful Bill on Idaho hospitals and healthcare. There are a few key changes that came out of the bill that will make medicare and medicaid even more costly to Idaho health providers which will ultimately raise the cost of care for those paying through private insurance or self pay. Brian did a masterful job of explaining why.
