Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it is proposing new rules requiring “disclosure about whether directors, officers and other employees are permitted to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of equity securities granted by the company as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by employees or directors.” Although this formulation is true to Congress’ expression of the requirement in Section 955 of the Dodd-Frank Act, it nevertheless struck me as odd.

This is predicated on the successful expansion of Medicaid—by allowing more individuals to be eligible for Medicaid, hospitals would care for fewer uninsured patients, thus needing less funding to cover uncompensated care costs. The architects of the ACA presumed hospitals would make up for the reduction in DSH payments by … [Read more...] about The Future of Disproportionate Share Hospitals (DSH) Payments?
