From STAT:
The hospital industry has pushed back against Medicare payment reforms for years, arguing that the policies would financially hurt rural hospitals.
Two key senators on Friday released a plan to get around that issue by reinvesting some of the money saved from payment reforms to help rural and safety-net hospitals. Hospitals that keep providing services like trauma centers, labor and delivery units, and burn units would get financial bonuses, too.
