Delaware senators introduce Senate Bill one to combat escalating healthcare costs, offering hospitals a choice: adopt global budgeting or face reimbursement caps at 250% of Medicare rates. The bill expands on previous reforms, increasing primary care spending requirements. Hospital leaders express opposition, citing past disputes and ignored compromises. Lawmakers view it as a gradual transition to wellness and affordability, starting with state employees and Medicare patients before broader caps in three years. The bill has passed the Senate Health and Social Services Committee and is under Governor Matt Meyers scrutiny.
