The Health Fund Bill
New health fund rules focus on patient outcomes, ban research
Relative to the health care consumer protection trust fund.
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
If passed, the trust fund would only pay for projects that directly help New Hampshire patients, require measurable results, and cannot fund academic research.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Consumers could see more health programs that show real improvements, while universities lose a source of money; the bill also cuts one layer of approval, speeding up spending.
