Project 2025 Health Policy Critique Redux August 15, 2024 Post Today I recap three recent HJM detailed critiques of Project 2025 health policy proposals. The goal is to provide maximally digestible and clarifying responses to this deeply problematic but often obscure agenda. There remains a fair amount of technical content.

Health Policy Issues in the Presidential Race September 13, 2024 Post Donald Trump would replace the ACA, he says, but with what? His past proposals suggest ACA and Medicaid tightening.

Veterans Care Under Attack February 26, 2024 Post An article in the American Prospect lays out how the Veterans Health Administration public approach to care – effective & efficient – is under siege, pushed at great cost to privatization. Not only by the proposed GOP/MAGA gutting, but by a complicit current administration.

Reminders that Private Insurers Use Shady Tactics to Manipulate and Deceive Us February 8, 2024 Post “Free” preventive services that cost patients hundreds of dollars. A Medicare enrollment “choice” that defaults to Medicare Advantage. These are two newly highlighted devious maneuvers that favor benefits for shareholders over benefits for the public.
