Great question by @sen_chrisgarten: Why are we going to allow nonprofit hospitals to take advantage of Hoosiers more than they do in 40+ other states?

Indiana’s largest hospital systems need to get real about pricing. 🗣️ @sen_chrisgarten

We need to stop letting hospitals behave like a for-profit while cashing in on non-profit perks. 🗣️ @sen_chrisgarten

When hospitals keep their tax breaks but keep raising prices, families and businesses suffer. It’s time for the legislature to restore balance to this broken system. https://t.co/1zyEoC6InT

Healthcare isn’t a free market. It’s heavily subsidized—with YOUR tax dollars.

Thank you for your leadership on this issue, @sen_chrisgarten!

As House Bill 1004 returns to the House from the Senate—heavily amended and now under consideration in conference committee—Hoosiers for Affordable Healthcare is releasing the following statement:

Joanne didn’t go to a boutique pharmacy in Paris—she went to her local hospital. And ended up $4,200 in the hole.

Show of hands, has anyone else received a bogus “nursery” charge on their hospital bill? 🙋‍♀️ We’ve heard stories about women like Ashlee and others charged for “nursery” service, even though their baby stayed in their room the whole time.

Senate Bill 3 is headed to the Governor’s desk! Here’s what it does: 👉 Requires companies that help manage health plans and prescription drug benefits (TPAs and PBMs) to act in the best interest of the employer that hires them. In other words, they can’t just look out for

How much would you expect to pay for sitting in a hallway on a gurney? For one Hoosier, it was more than $4,000—before being admitted. Total bill: $18,701.30. This is why we fight for transparency and fairness.

Too many Hoosier families know this story all too well. A short ER visit shouldn’t cost over $2,000.

$2,000 with insurance seems a little excessive for a snack and an IV, don’t you think @ParkviewHealth?

When Indiana manufacturers say high hospital prices are a barrier to growth and competitiveness, we should listen. #PassHB1004 Read the @IMA1901 's full public comment: https://t.co/F9FOIuVF6l
