Trump’s latest Executive Order forces healthcare price transparency, shaking up an industry that thrived on secrecy and price gouging

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order aimed at making healthcare prices transparent. This order seeks to shake up an industry that has long kept pricing secret and potentially allows consumers to find better deals on medical services.

• The executive order mandates that healthcare providers and insurers publicly disclose their prices for services.

• It targets the lack of transparency that has historically benefited insurers and providers, keeping patients uninformed.

• Trump's 2019 rules on price transparency had low compliance, with only 14% of hospitals adhering to them by 2022.

• The new directive intends to enforce stricter compliance and requires full disclosure of actual costs for procedures like MRIs and colonoscopies.

• Critics, including some insurance industry groups, argue that the policy might raise premiums and disrupt current negotiating processes.

• Andrew Bremberg, a former official in Trump's administration, remarked that this move represents a significant step toward empowering consumers.

• Cynthia Fisher from PatientRightsAdvocate.org noted that real price visibility could transform the healthcare market by enhancing competition.

• The executive order also follows another initiative aimed to reduce costs related to in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Trump's executive order signifies a major shift in the healthcare system, pushing for greater transparency which could ultimately lower costs for patients. If successful, this could change how healthcare is accessed and paid for in America, shifting power towards consumers. The initiative is positioned as a challenge to a long-standing system of secrecy in healthcare pricing.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
