Aetna Health Reform Weekly
A weekly compilation from Aetna of health care-related developments in Washington, D.C. and state legislatures across the country

Anyone concerned about the rising cost of health care should be engaged in the process by reaching out to their Senators to urge a greater focus on bending the cost curve.

N.Y. physician pay deal may hike costs: Experts
NEW YORK—Employers likely will pay more for health care as a result of an agreement reached last week between New York's attorney general and UnitedHealth Group Inc. The agreement will see UnitedHealth spin off its Ingenix Inc. subsidiary's databases used by most of the nation's health insurers and third-party administrators to determine reimbursement rates for out-of-network providers.
