Poor Martha Coakley: Even the governor is ignoring her, at least on health-care costs

Paul Levy, CEO at Beth Israel Deaconess (and, yes, a Charlie Baker backer), explains why Deval Patrick's attempt to regulate health-insurance premiums will fail because it ignores the monopolistic overhead charged by archrival Partners HealthCare - a factor Coakley noted in a report released just two weeks ago.

Coakley's report did not find the problem to be a "monopolistic overhead charged by archrival Partners HealthCare."

It found the problem to be a monopolistic overhead charged by unspecified health care providers. AG Coakley intentionally left out all names in her report.

Next time those kids in the legislature pass a law authorizing a study like this, they ought to spell out that the offending names must be spelled out.
