The regulations deal with payment rates to doctors and hospitals. How doctors get paid by HHS through the new, overreaching Obamacare guidelines has been an item of concern for the American Medical Association, a key supporter of the health care law.

Nobody would do a document dump in a manner calculated to avoid media coverage unless the information it contained was going to be negative to the Obama Administration.

If it was good news, they’d have the Telepromptermeister on stage with all the adoring acolytes in the media in attendance.

“the practice of dumping potentially controversial regulations on the eve of a major holiday has become a pattern for the Obama Administration”

Obamacare was passed late Christmas Eve.

please let the R party nominate someone who will work with Congress to throw all these (and the additional 100,000 pages of Obama’s) communist regulations into the great fire pit where they belong

my Lord, America was such a wonderful country...never perfect of course but so far, far above all this dictatorship shi*t

an exceptional nation, deliberately trashed by the IslamoNaziCommunistWhatever conspiracy to destroy her

and the American people (many, most?) of them...are still silent sheep being prepared for the mutton factory

The AMA deserves whatever happens to them because they never bothered to learn history: any time you lay with fascist dogs you catch fascist fleas.

Doctors, their staff, the utilities, the mortgage all need to bill those hours taken up filling out the red tape.

Guess where who it will be billed to?

(Hint: Its the way they hide taxes by making someone else send you a bill so the big, mean govt doesn’t get the blame. The rich doctors get the blame. Envy and revenge, envy and revenge, keep stoking those flames from 2008)
