This week on "Sunday Morning" (Jan. 11) A look at the features for this week's broadcast of the Emmy-winning program, hosted by Jane Pauley.

If you’re up for watching a Sunday show, I’ll be on CBS Sunday Morning, through which I discussed with Erin Moriarty my research findings on the scope and impact of health insurance coverage barriers in the U.S., which deepen administrative burden and inequity. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/thi...

This ^^^ is why we need the Minnesota Health Plan. By having all people on ONE health insurance plan, our buying power increases and allows everyone access to care.

Overconsumption is a myth. Folks don't enjoy medical procedures and won't waste their leisure time getting unnecessary procedures. Like, no one will their waste PTO on a second colonoscopy.😝

Lack of care due to financial barriers is a much bigger issue than the potential for overuse of services.

Yes! We have a costly, inefficient, Swiss-cheese system that most people hate.

Though Japanβ€˜s social insurance with universal coverage isn’t what we advocate for ( #singlepayer), we appreciate @thebulwark.com opening up the space for dialogue about the necessary changes we need and deserve!

”we’re gonna do a healthcare” 😳
This would be funny if American patients weren’t forced to choose between bankruptcy and death.

A plan to cut costs and improve health outcomes is called #improvedmedicareforall The bills are written. We don’t need to wait two weeksβ€”Do it now!

@mcuban.bsky.social Let me answer your questions as you’ve asked them:

Any hospitals receiving federal funds must meet negotiated rates. Period.

TBD

We already do.

We’d save ~15%

Negotiated Rx & care costs REMOVE denials

🀣 Already do!!

Minimized admin overhead + improved FFS rates = Better!

β€œWe don’t have to keep living like this.” πŸ€” How do we actually enact a single payer healthcare reform to achieve affordable care with better outcomes? Speak up! Until the people of this country join together & demand change, we will keep living (and dying) like this.

New Study Reveals UnitedHealth’s Hidden Hand Research suggests UnitedHealth may be running a shell game β€” one that lets insurers flout regulations and obscure the harmful consequences of their vertical integration strategies.

"even a 1% artificial price increase through these internal transfers could significantly reduce the rebates insurers owe consumers under the medical loss ratio rule. That’s billions of dollars that patients, taxpayers and employers are entitled to but that never leave the company’s bank account"

πŸͺ¦You pay your monthly premium, yet your health insurance company...
...denies the care prescribed by your doctor.
...requires a preauthorization.
...limits your prescription options.

This is what we refer to as the "Healthcare Mafia". It feels like a grift, because IT IS.

Open enrollment for the ACA Marketplace started today. Woof. This is rough, Folks.
(It’s almost like they should, I dunno, extend the subsidies…or better yet, #MedicareForAll)

The rates below are for a middle-aged Minnesotan

With Republicans refusing to renew ACA subsidies, marketplace plans are unveiling tragic increases in premium costs. What will happen? Healthier people will go without coverage, increasing overall costs for everyone.

…But don’t worry, Argentina gets a $40 Billion bailout.

Cut funding then give a morsel back? That’s not landmark…it’s deception.

A huge thanks to MN Senator John Marty for speaking at Advent Lutheran Church in Osseo, MN on Sept 14th! We had a great turnout, an engaged group, and great support from the pastor of the congregation.

Marty is an ally for quality, affordable health care for all Minnesotans! #MinnesotaHealthPlan
