Minnesota's premiums are among the highest in the nation. Today I'm releasing the list of the 25 nonprofit health systems that control American healthcare. Combined revenue: $527 billion. Tax exemptions: $37 billion. Tax paid: $0. Total Subsidies: $125 billion per year.

@gkfahnbulleh @Terrilox @DrDiGiorgio 1. The Doctor doesn’t get $150. The Doctor gets 25% of that $150.$37.50. 75% of the $150 goes to our Lordships. 2. Wrong. A 99215 is a 40 plus minutes a visit. 3. This is basic CEO math: A 99213 is 20-29 minutes and pays $90. You make more money seeing 2 99213s than 1 99215 and

A massive cold pool is building across much of Alaska and northern Canada. Here's a look at forecast high (not low) temperatures for Saturday. BRRR! Michigan stays colder than average for the next 10 days and the potential is there for even colder weather later this month.

"The ban on physician-owned hospitals was about preserving control over the referral engine... The real question is: what happens to cost, competition, and access when decision-making shifts back to clinicians instead of institutions?"

15 years ago, Democrats passed the Affordable Care Act. We fought to ensure every American could access affordable, high-quality health care. And we’re still fighting. Republicans want to rip health care away from millions. We won’t let them.

When electronic medical records were imposed on doctors, one of the big promises was that we would have all this data to help treat disease. Instead we got data about how to bill for patient care. Hospital systems coalesced around Epic because it is primarily a billing

The Toyota Helux Champ will soon be on the American market! It’s a light-duty, basic pickup truck that will likely sell for less than $20k. Until today, U.S. regulations made it impossible to sell in our markets.

Healthcare is the only industry where “innovation” raises overhead and “scale” raises prices. And policymakers keep calling this “progress.” It’s all so dumb - yet we allow it.

Make it SEVEN straight colder than average max temp days going back to Thanksgiving. If forecast models are correct, we'll at least double that number. In other words, the cold air is here to stay for a while. @JeffPorterWX is tracking the big chill LIVE through 9 a.m. #almanac
