Wrote a guest post for @Noahpinion on US semiconductor policy. We have been forced into an economic struggle with China and must shift away from the treasured policies of free trade towards more traditional industrial policy. It's life and death. noahpinion.blog/p/americas-sem…
Today is Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for “First Sunday in May”). And today isn’t about getting hammered on margaritas and celebrating Mexico, which is my favorite South American country. This holiday honors America’s resounding victory over Mexico in the Battle of the Alamo. Let us…

If we acknowledge that America will spend practically unlimited money on healthcare and also that we've recently found a de facto cure for obesity, something becomes clear: very soon, a large part of America's life expectancy gap could disappear.
Controversial opinion: Many researchers do not translate statistical parameters into policy relevant parameters. It's hard to do! But saying that the LATE is 0.0034 is very hard to interpret without additional context.
Hospital systems have justified horizontal mergers for years claiming that larger scale will lower costs and raise quality. We now have the 3rd study showing that merged systems, even if in different markets, materially raise prices & don't improve quality measures. via @statnews

The growth of federal matching payments for "social services" from '69-'72 was wild. States took advantage of an uncapped federal matching grant to simply replace state spending for services they had already been providing. @brian_blase @CPopeHC 1/4
🚨 New paper alert! “Is There Too Little Antitrust Enforcement in the US Hospital Sector?” with @zarekcb, @stuartcraig, and Lev Klarnet that’s forthcoming in American Economic Review: Insights. TLDR: Yes…there has been way too little enforcement. 🧵

#Indiana is the latest state to act on hospital & health system M&A to make healthcare more affordable. Increased transparency can make markets more competitive and empower purchasers & policymakers to address drivers of cost. Read more: bit.ly/3TYjbeF

The US brings in 21 trillion annually in revenue. We don't have a revenue problem we have a SPENDING problem. It makes you wonder how Cuban got rich being as ignorant as he appears so often.

Producing an unfair, edited, gotcha video against a progressive economist (Jared Bernstein) dedicated to full employment - so it can be used virally by the far right social media - is a particularly asinine move from the MMT crowd. Whatever patience I had, it's gone.
BREAKING: A university spokesperson has officially confirmed to me that MIT will no longer use diversity statements in faculty hiring—making it the first elite private institution to backtrack on the controversial policy.

One lightweight way for @CMSGov to mitigate this: Update guidance to confirm that time spent on prior auth is billable to Medicare Advantage plans under CCM codes. That could offset some practice burdens and force insurers to internalize some of the costs they impose on others.
Our nurse just filled out a prior authorization that had 61 questions & took 59 minutes to complete For just one medication—and the patient is already on it & doing well She could have cared for 4-5 patients/families during that time. This shouldn’t be legal
