IBM Watson Health published its 100 Top Hospitals annual study earlier this month and 21 FAH member facilities made the prestigious list.

FAH President and CEO Chip Kahn and AHA President and CEO Rick Pollack issued the following joint statement reacting to a letter from insurer and business groups on surprise bills:

The new White House budget imposes arbitrary and blunt Medicare cuts to hospitals who care for the nation’s most vulnerable. The impact on care for seniors would be devastating. Not to mention that massive reductions would drastically reduce resources critical to care for low-income Americans and cripple efforts to stave off the looming physician shortage.

The Federation of American Hospitals was honored to give its Mike Bromberg Lifetime Achievement Award to HCA’s Milton Johnson Monday morning during the FAH Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.
