Medical Credit Scoring in Hospitals Saturday, July 26, 2008
Businessweek has been doing a very good job covering one of the most important--and underreported--stories in contemporary health care--"the transformation of medical bills into consumer debt." It would not be surprising to me to find that many hospitals are taking the next logical step here into "consumer-directed health care" and scoring "customers" according to their ability to pay. Therefore I'm happy to post this request for more information on the topic from reporter Robert Berner: If you care about issues like this, please pass it on to doctors or administrators you know! |
