You have no idea how bad a report has to be to pull me back into the world of blogging.
So we wrote this post to tell you.

Is this a stupid fight? Yes.
Is STAT on the right side of history? Also yes.
absolutely wild to me that MGB, one of the highest-revenue health care systems in the country apparently fundraises from patients? (I started getting these after an annual checkup)
Do read @citizencohn.bsky.social on that ASPE report, quoting three former top appointees of the office.
"If you read the report itself... you can detect the whiff of serious, longtime HHS analysts trying their best to produce a truthful document."

2027 health insurance rate filings aren't yet public in most states. But there are already at least 7 insurers that have said they're exiting the health insurance Marketplace at the end of 2026, affecting more than 636k enrollees across 17 states: www.healthinsurance.org/blog/health-...
Should insurers start lending their customers money so they can cover the plans’ high deductibles? It’s one idea being floated by the Trump administration. Here’s my story: www.nytimes.com/2026/06/11/b...
President Trump has taken a pro-tobacco regulatory stance in office.
There has also been an extraordinary flow of money between Trump and the tobacco industry, including as much as $1.64 million in Philips Morris stock.

Is it “health care” or “healthcare”? STAT readers had strong feelings.
Why does the Trump administration bother with issuing reports that people who study work requirements will not take seriously? Because most people don't know the topic. Reporters might assume there is some disagreement about the research, but not recognize just how misleading the claims are.

The Trump administration has pursued an extensive pro-tobacco agenda as the president and his political movement have been buoyed by a flood of tobacco industry money, federal records show.
