New Affordable Care US Health Plans Will Exclude Top Hospitals
Americans who are buying insurance plans over online exchanges, under what is known as Obamacare, will have limited access to some of the nation’s leading hospitals, including two world-renowned cancer centres.
Amid a drive by insurers to limit costs, the majority of insurance plans being sold on the new healthcare exchanges in New York, Texas, and California, for example, will not offer patients’ access to Memorial Sloan Kettering in Manhattan or MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, two top cancer centres, or Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles, one of the top research and teaching hospitals in the country.
Not quite 9:46. While it's true some (very few) hospitals didn't do business w/certain insurance COMPANIES and vice versa, this is about the plans themselves. This is more comparable to health care facilities and providers who don't accept Medicare and/or Medicaid. Some hospitals and providers are not going to accept plans offered by Obamacare or limit to the more expensive ones.
It was the same way before, some insurances were not accepted. This is not new always was like this.
