In the November issue of Health Affairs, Paula Steiner pens a Narrative Matters essay on the role of profit in health insurance and health care ([link removed] ) .

Reflecting on her experience as a former Blue Cross Blue Shield executive, Steiner argues that while there is a national fixation on profits, eliminating profit in health care is insufficient to improve affordability.

Instead, “the nation must also confront the disconnection between our consumption and our willingness to pay.”

Steiner writes that a disregard for this confrontation has been a barrier to achieving a more humane health system.

Today, we’re pleased to announce the continuation of our Forefront Series “Provider Prices in the Commercial Sector ([link removed] ) .”

This series features analysis and discussion of physician, hospital, and other health care provider prices in the private-sector markets and their contribution to overall spending therein.

Thanks to ongoing support from Arnold Ventures ([link removed] ) , we are able to reissue our call for submissions ([link removed] ) for this series. We will accept submissions on a rolling basis throughout 2024.
