Closing the loop

While Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius continues to rail against health insurers, the Senate passed the tax extenders bill (H.R. 4213) which would prevent a 21% cut in Medicare Part B payments to doctors until October 1, 2010. As noted in Tuesday's Tidbit's the bill also extends the COBRA / TCC subsidy program until December 31, 2010.  That bill now goes back to the House for final approval.
