Competition forces businesses to lower prices and improve service. Healthcare should work the same way. That's why hospital contracts that limit competition deserve far more scrutiny.

I love 340B. As a nonprofit hospital administrator, I consider it one of the great miracles of American healthcare. It started as a program to help poor patients get access to medicine. Beautiful. Then we found the spread. I buy the drug at the 340B discount. I bill the commercial plan at the regular rate. I keep the difference. The patient gets the deductible. The employer gets the renewal increase. The manufacturer gets blamed. I get a new tower. That is called mission. And the best part? I don’t have to pass the savings to the patient. I don’t have to pass the savings to the employer. I don’t have to lower premiums. I don’t have to prove the vulnerable patient ever saw a dime. I just say “access” three times, put “community benefit” in the annual report, and everyone nods like I’m running a soup kitchen with oncology margins. Then came dual classification. Urban hospital? No problem. I’m rural now. Yes, my hospital is in Manhattan. Yes, my campus sits on billions of real estate. Yes, my lobby looks like a Four Seasons. But on paper? Country doctor. Dusty road. Single stoplight. Maybe a cow. That’s the business model. Rural when I want the subsidy. Urban when I want the commercial rates. Nonprofit when I want the tax exemption. Monopoly when I negotiate with employers. Charity when Congress asks questions. Private equity when I buy physician practices. Wall Street when BlackRock underwrites my bonds. Mission when the reporter calls. This is why I love 340B. Manufacturer must provide the discount. Employers pays full freight. Patients pays out of pocket. I keeps the arbitrage. Then I build a cancer tower and call it hope. Do I pass the 340B discount to the self-funded employer? No. Do I pass it to the fully insured commercial plan? Absolutely not. Do I use it to make healthcare cheaper? Please. I’m a nonprofit hospital administrator. Not a threat to my own margin. In 2024, 340B purchases hit $81.4 billion. That’s scale. I call it stewardship. And I serve vulnerable populations. Use the correct language. Now excuse me. I have to explain why my nonprofit hospital needs another tax exemption, another rate increase, another physician acquisition, another rural designation, and another debt issuance. The poor are counting on me. I love the US taxpayer…

The mere fact that physicians and Public Health officials discounted SCIENCE by ignoring natural immunity and pushed the COVID-recovered to take the injected gene product is tantamount to criminal/scientific malfeasance. The result are many injured and immune systems dysregulated, at the very least.

Week of July 20, 1776: **In Philadelphia, Franklin abruptly dismisses a diplomatic overture from Britain, responding that the "fine and noble China vase" of the British Empire is now forever shattered. **In Staten Island, 20,000 British troops dig in--and prepare to move on Long Island and Manhattan. **Across the united colonies, public readings of the Declaration inspire unprecedented revolutionary resolve.

Real vaccine safety data takes 7-12 years to establish — and we're not even collecting it properly. Demand real surveillance, not reassurance. @CHDTVLive @ChildrensHD @BrianHookerPhD @teacher_choice For The Defender story:

It’s difficult to fathom that we went along with govt labeling people and jobs “essential” or “non-essential,” as if the trajectory of Covid would change because the virus would understand some jobs were “essential.” Just like the virus would supposedly travel 5’11” and then suddenly drop to the ground so as not to infect someone standing exactly 6’ away. Same with being convinced or forced to get an experimental medicine that didn’t do what they promised (prevent infection, spread, or illness), but caused plenty of side effects known and still unknown. Same with being prevented from getting the treatments and health care that we and some of our doctors recommend. Meantime, Dr. Fauci, Nancy Pelosi, and so many others exempted themselves from the rules and showed they didn’t believe any of what they were forcing the peasants to do. Classic Let Them Eat Cake. In retrospect, what could we the people have done about all of it, considering the great control they had over our jobs, censorship/media, access to health care, travel, education, and most everything else? Surely people who grouped together to oppose in a meaningful way would have been jailed or worse. We haven’t even held the medical associations and establishment accountable for going along with and letting this nightmare happen. Individual doctors spoke out and broke away at great personal peril, but the core system remains intact today.

Fifteen years after Obamacare became law, health insurance is more expensive, insurer competition has declined, and Medicaid costs continue to climb. That's not the record of a law that solved America's healthcare problems.
