The Affordable Care Act's payment reforms and the future of hospitals.
The author places likely hospital responses to the Affordable Care Act’s payment reforms in the historical context of their previous responses to such reforms as price controls, certificate-of-need laws, and prospective payment systems. He then discusses possible hospital responses to counter readmission penalties, revenue reductions, bundled payment strategies, and accountable care organizations.
