The Cleveland Clinic's CEO had some
words of warning in July:
Cosgrove also said the health care law, which was recently upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, doesn't control costs or contain many incentives for people to take care of themselves.
Same guy
talking to the Wall Street Journal last week:
WSJ: How does the health overhaul affect you?
Dr. Cosgrove: We knew that we had to reduce costs and we had to drive a more efficient health-care delivery system. [The law] just gave additional impetus to get that done.
"Impetus" for major groups of hospitals and doctors to cut costs yes, "control costs" no.
