93% of Hospital Executives believe Health Care will improve under Obamacare

In a recent non-scientific survey, Andrew Steinmetz, Ralph Muller, Steven Altschuler, and Ezekiel Emanuel of HealthAffiars.org asked 74 C-Suite (i.e. COO, CEO, CFO) executives from hospitals how they believed Obamacre would affect their hospital.  An incredible 93% believed it would not only make the health care system better than it is today, they also believed it would lower the cost of care across the board.

Fully 65 percent indicated that by 2020, they believe the healthcare system as a whole will be somewhat or significantly better than it is today. And when they were asked about their own institutions, the optimism was even more dramatic. Fully 93 percent predicted that the quality of care provided by their own health system would improve. This is probably related to efforts to diminish hospital acquired conditions, medication errors, and unnecessary re-admissions, as encouraged by financial penalties in the ACA.
