If your healthcare system isn’t “selling” the Affordable Care Act to your customer base, it’s a little late in the game but you still have nearly two months until the March 31 deadline to get with the program. The $64,000 question: Why would you want to recommend your organization and your staff market the Affordable Care Act, knowing the initial rollout on healthcare.gov was very shaky at best?
Justifying the effort shouldn’t be the problem, especially if you’re looking at the bottom line: The huge price tag for uncompensated care your hospital system currently provides for free.
