Swing beds: new diversification opportunity for small and rural hospitals

Article Abstract:

A swing-bed hospital program can help a small, rural hospital cope with long-term care needs. The program can be of value to the elderly patient because of recent reimbursement changes in Medicare and Medicaid. If the program is carefully analyzed from a marketing standpoint it can prove to be beneficial for long-term community health care services.

Social Security must change: means test hard but necessary

Article Abstract:

Instead of paying a smaller amount to all Social Security recipients, what is needed is a plan that pays more to the needy, less to those who are able to take care of some of their expenses, and nothing to those who are able to take care of all their expenses.
