Reed Smith partner Karl Thallner just published “Health Care Reform During the Obama Presidency: The Impact on Hospitals” in BNA’s Health Care Policy. Karl discusses several aspects of the Obama plan, including access to coverage, individual mandates, delivery and payment, and transparency.

In addition, hospitals may see increases in patient volumes with the reduction in the uninsured.”
