Obamacare's Limited Access. Evidence Shows Little Link Between Cost And Quality
"This could be the start of a backlash against narrow network plans, which have made headlines for limiting patients' access to doctors. While patients tend not to like these limits, there's a reason they exist: to hold down premiums by only including less expensive providers. That doesn't mean, by the way, excluding better hospitals: There's a lot of health economics analysis that shows little, if any, relationship between price and quality in health care." Sarah Kliff in The Washington Post.
