Analysts Warn Universal Health Insurance May Boost Costs
Two health policy analysts from Duke University and UC Santa Barbara argue a national plan covering all would spark an initial cost surge and potential decline in care quality.

A hospital in Chester received a $60,000 Blue Cross incentive for early discharge.
