Corporate Hospitals Bilking Americans as #GOP Destroys Health Care - The largest corporate health care hospitals in the country are consolidating their power and using it to rip off patients, a new study from Families USA shows. Released amid the GOP’s manufactured affordability crisis, the study shows that health care executives at a handful of corporations are setting “high and irrational prices” in every state and charging patients almost three times what Medicare pays for the exact same service.
The 15 largest systems charged an average of 282 percent more than the Medicare rate, the study found, resulting in $22 million in profit per hospital per year. https://prospect.org/2026/05/08/corporate-hospitals-bilking-americans-gop-destroys-health-care/ #HealthCare #hospitals #medicine #Capitalism #MedicareForAll -
