Regular readers already ready know about the ObamaCare body count:
"Mortality Rates Suggests Obamacare Could Be Killing People ... equivalent to an excess 11,000 annual U.S. adult deaths relative to the pre-Obamacare steady state trends"
But that was then (a year-and-a-half ago), and this is now, so what's changed?
Not much, apparently:
"This has raised concern that some hospitals may be avoiding readmissions, even for patients who would benefit most from inpatient care."
Ooops.
