Listen "The 15% Markup - How Hospital Acquisitions Drive Up Healthcare Prices"
Episode Synopsis
Hospitals are quietly buying up physician practices—and healthcare prices are soaring as a result. In this episode, Andrew unpacks the “15% markup” that hits patients when independent doctors are absorbed by hospital systems. You’ll learn why costs rise without improvements in care, how regulatory loopholes keep this trend flying under the radar, and what this consolidation means for physician autonomy and patient choice. With real data and stories from the front lines, discover how the corporatization of medicine is changing what it means to be a doctor—and a patient—in America.
