She lives in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. I would hazard a guess that the reason hospitals are cutting staff there is "Romney Care" Reimbursements to providers goes down, well, a provider is not in business to loose money nor to break even. The goal is to make money. Seeing that personal expenses are the greatest cost in a business...... Work harder, maybe send out more labs rather than buying the machines to run them on site, same with the staff.
This is just the beginning. My boss has made a business decision concerning giving away care and writing off co-pays if someone cannot afford it. In the pass, he would eat the cost of this care because he could make up the cost from well paying insurance plans. Now, more and more insurance plans are electing to use the same reimbursement schedule that medicare and medicaid uses.
This is all because of Obama Care. The people that need the help the most are the ones that are going to get hurt the most. It is just going to get much worse.
