Delaware's Healthcare Transparency Alert! Did you know? In the past five fiscal years, Delaware’s two major non-profit hospitals—Christiana Hospital and Bayhealth have reported a combined net income of nearly $1.4 billion! Despite these substantial earnings, there’s ongoing resistance and public concern regarding the new bill #HB350 sponsored by Valerie Longhurst. Why does this matter? #HB350 aims to enhance healthcare transparency and fairness, which could be a game-changer for patient care and pricing in our state. Yet, it appears there’s a narrative that paints a different financial picture. As we navigate this debate, it's crucial to ask: - How are these earnings being used to benefit patient care? - Why is there opposition to increased transparency in healthcare? Let’s demand clarity and accountability. #HealthcareTransparency #HB350 #DelawareHealth #UnitedTV #UmAcoLive #HealthNews

It is almost unheard of for monthly service costs—especially those related to a vital utility like broadband—to maintain or DECREASE year over year. Many healthcare providers have to plan/budget for regular increased costs of 5% and up year over year. NCTNA guarantees...yes GUARANTEES (with no catch!) that member's broadband costs will maintain or decrease year over year. This is a massive benefit for non-profit and public healthcare providers.

Profit in Healthcare: Why It's Not a Dirty Word..Read on! #HealthcareInnovation #Disruption #OutcomesMatter #OutcomesOverIdeology As a doctor and administrator, I've seen firsthand the power of a well-run for-profit healthcare system. Here's the truth: profits aren't the enemy; they're the fuel for better patient care. Numbers don't lie: For-profit hospitals invest 2.5x more in research and development than non-profits. For-profit hospitals reinvest 15% more of revenue back into technology and facilities compared to non-profits. This translates to better patient outcomes - a 5% reduction in mortality rates for complex procedures. Efficiency -The profit motive drives cost-containment, leading to better resource allocation and lower overhead. This translates to more resources for direct patient care. Innovation thrives in for-profit environments. They attract top talent with competitive salaries and drive research & development, leading to faster adoption of life-saving treatments. Don't get me wrong, charity plays a role. But let's be honest, charity thrives in a capitalist environment. For-profit businesses generate the wealth that funds philanthropic endeavors. It's Time to Change the Conversation: For-profit healthcare isn't about greed - it's about sustainable growth and better patient outcomes. The bottom line: A healthy dose of profit is the key to a healthy healthcare system.It's time we stop demonizing success and focus on delivering the best possible outcomes for patients. I welcome challenges in the comments. Are we finally ready to prioritize outcomes over ideology? #HealthcareDebate #ProfitForGood #TheFutureofMedicine #CapitalismForGood #SustainableHealthcare #HealthcareTrends #ValueBasedCare #VC #HealthcareStartup #HealthcareInvestment #FutureOfHealthcare #HealthcareAccess #Heathcareequity #NGO #notforprofit

?????? ???????? ???????? ???? ????????????????????: ???????????????? ???????? ????????????????24 At TribFest24, I attended an interesting panel discussion addressing the critical question: "Why does healthcare cost so much?" The session featured U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett of Texas, Elena Marks from Rice University, and Noam Levey of KFF Health News. These experts shared valuable insights on pressing healthcare issues, including big pharma's influence, surprise billing practices, non-profit hospitals and charity care and primary care service shortages. The lively discussion highlighted the complexities of our healthcare system and explored potential avenues for reform. It was a great session. #TribFest24 #HealthcareCosts #PublicPolicy #HealthcarePolicy
