Flipped out over outpatient PPS.

The adjustment to Medicare's new outpatient prospective payment system has been anything but calm and orderly. Hospital billing offices have had to totally redo their systems.

The curtain goes up in North Dakota. Providers in Fargo battle for the limelight.

The story of how Fargo, N.D., came to have three hospitals for the second time in its 125-year history makes great theater. Characters in the drama are Innovis Health, the new acute-care facility that starts admitting patients in two days, and its owners, the Dakota Clinic and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota. Another main player is Dakota Heartland Health System--the culprit, some say, that led physicians and others at Innovis to do business with a wealthy insurer.
