When you now, if you were having a system that would open it up, like potentially in a HSA account where they are given the right information at the right time in an understandable format and
Their financial decisions are going to be impacted by where they make a choice.
In other words, do you get your CAT scan at a hospital where it may cost $2,000 or do you get your CAT scan in a freestanding imaging center where it may cost $500?
I do think that's where consumers will begin to start using that data and changing behavior.
In government, there's always a balance between where you spend taxpayer money and the value that you're getting.
But I think in this case, the data and the demographics should drive the policy.
We are a society that's getting older, that's going to require more, not less, nursing care as we get older.
And the workforce shortages that we already see in the American healthcare system with nurses are significant and will only grow.
Policy should support where the needs are and the growth is.
And so I believe policy should support additional people entering the educational system to get nursing degrees and to get healthcare degrees.
And so anything that discourages them from doing that and helps defray the cost of that type of education, I think, is short sighted policy.
And so I was disappointed to see this.
And I think that this will need to be revisited.
