HMOs

Here’s a good one: Supreme Court ruling approves state laws on doctor choice. What do the HMOs have to say?

The Health Insurance Association of America says the laws “are one more instance of government unnecessarily interfering in private relationships between doctors and health plans.”

Uh, right. No doctor I’ve ever met truly wants to be associated with an HMO.

Ironically, the same thing goes for the patients.
