Even though I don't understand all the numbers, I can see the sense in what you are saying. Basically, use the correct calculations to get the correct answers. Generally, numbers don't lie but they can be manipulated. I know the Democrats will run with this as far as they can. Sad that the majority of them will not read your article or do any research on this at all. Thank you for your consistent clarity!
Just goes to show that you don’t need a medical degree to see corruption in medical research papers. Yale is virtue signaling here. The paper will languish in “preprint” status for eternity only to be quoted by socialist democrats at every opportunity.
This is the oldest socialist trick in academic form: assume away reality, call the result compassion, and demand federal power. You cannot slash administrative costs and also magically recover hundreds of billions in fraud. You cannot force hospitals onto underwater Medicare rates and pretend rural closures, service cuts, staffing exits, and provider resistance vanish. You cannot cite rebuttals as support, confuse improper payments with fraud, ignore utilization spikes, skip transition costs, and then announce “savings” to the nearest billion. Muse is right: strip the fantasy assumptions, and most of the claimed savings evaporate. This is not neutral research. It is Berniecare fan fiction with institutional branding.
This is not research. How much government funding was received? Anyone looking at a hospital bill paid by Medicare knows universal application is a recipe for hospital bankruptcy.
Here we go again! You would think that someone would be suspicious after the travesty that was/is Obamacare

I keep numbers up my ass that I can pull out on demand and that have exactly as much legitimacy as these.
