1/Denial rates are up over 4X in one year & will continue climbing as the health plans have $ issues like UnitedHealthcare. Claims denial rates up, prior auth denials down in 2024: Report beckerspayer.com/payer/claims-d…

SB 268 lets people practice medicine without a medical license—& ties the hands of the one agency that can stop them. Who benefits from this bill? (Not Texas patients. Not Texas families.) Individuals with no medical licenses, who want to diagnose, treat, & perform procedures

Steering, Switching, & the #MedicareAdvantage “Trap” “Many beneficiaries are unaware of 2 key features of MA enrollment that may steer them into the program & keep them there for life.“ Strong incentives for agents/brokers to steer. Obstacles to switch. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

More bad news for the health plans on the #NoSurprisesAct (NSA) front. Recall that Texas Medical Association filed 4 cases challenging the NSA rule making of the prior administration. TMA I and IV were flat out wins at the district court (not appealed) as was the appeal to the 5th Circuit in
