Tell Your Representative to Oppose AB85
I am writing to express my strong opposition to efforts to implement government price fixing in outpatient healthcare services like AB85. As you may know, this bill would require healthcare providers to charge a uniform price for certain services, which would limit competition and reduce access to healthcare for many Nevadans.
Price fixing is a failed policy that has been shown to reduce access to healthcare and limit innovation. When prices are set by the government, there is no incentive for providers to innovate or compete on price, which can lead to higher costs and reduced quality of care.
Moreover, price fixing can lead to shortages of services and long wait times for patients. This is especially concerning for patients who require urgent care or who have chronic conditions that require frequent visits to healthcare providers.
Instead of price fixing, we should be focused on policies that promote competition and innovation in healthcare. This includes measures to increase transparency in pricing and quality, as well as efforts to reduce regulatory barriers that limit competition and innovation.
I urge you to oppose efforts to implement government price fixing in outpatient healthcare services like AB85. By doing so, we can promote competition and innovation in healthcare and ensure that all Nevadans have access to high-quality, affordable healthcare.
Thank you for your attention to this important issue.
