Big changes in #Healthcare may be coming to #Delaware!
Hospitals fight Push to regulate Costs
House Bill 350, sponsored by #ValerieLonghurst and supported by Gov. #JohnCarney, seeks to create a #Hospital #CostReviewBoard, which will be responsible for reviewing and approving annual budgets for the state’s major hospitals
The board would feature three appointments from the governor and one each from the leaders of the state’s House of Representatives and Senate.
Delaware’s hospitals have opposed the bill, however, calling it a “grave threat to quality health care in the state.”

ChristianaCare has reserved $47 million for a pending #Whistleblower settlement
#ChristianaCare said the settlement was not an admission of wrongdoing [Right?]
The tentative settlement involves alleged violations of the federal False Claims Act and anti-kickback laws at #Christiana Hospital…The ‘nonprofit’ health system’s former chief compliance officer, Ronald Sherman, filed the lawsuit in 2017
ChristianaCare provided free services…to a group of neonatology physicians…”
