"In August, CVS announced a partnership with the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER), a nonprofit group that bills itself as a medical review board. But its leadership team and the far-left billionaires footing its bill paint a troubling picture."
How's that?
Well, turns out that ICER is a direct descendant of the Much Vaunted National Health System©'s "National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence" (NICE), which is the Brits' version of IPAB. And we've actually met the ICER folks before:
"ICER [Institute for Clinical and Economic Review] portrays itself as being independent when it is nothing of the sort, as it was founded and is being run by people with strong ties to the insurance industry"
Oh goody.
But just what makes this development so troubling?
Well:
"Thanks to NICE guidelines, millions of British citizens are on waiting lists at any given time for procedures, hundreds of thousands are waiting for basic diagnostic tests, and thousands of operations are regularly cancelled."
Opening soon here.
