Pacific Research Institute CEO: ACA Could Lead to Rationing
In a Forbes opinion piece, Sally Pipes -- president and CEO of the California-based Pacific Research Institute -- argues that comparative effectiveness research under the Affordable Car Act "is nothing more than a backdoor route to health care rationing."Â She writes that "[s]uch research will almost certainly be used to not-so-subtly influence treatment decisions" and could cause patients to "suffer."
