Concerns About MACRA

Oncology Times: For consumers, MACRA’s increased federal control over the practice of medicine could translate into “higher costs and more difficulties getting access to timely and quality care,” warned Senior Fellow John Graham in an article at the Oncology Times.

The Economic Effects of the Clinton Tax Proposal

Taxes impinge on individual and business decisions to work, save and invest. Using a dynamic computable general equilibrium model that we created for the National Center for Policy Analysis (the “NCPA-DCGE Model”), we simulate the effects on the U.S. economy of the tax proposal advanced by presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The plan will generate $615 billion in tax revenue over 10 years. It will exert moderate negative impacts on output, investment, overall employment and household well-being. We briefly compare our findings with other published estimates and contrast the methodology underlying our model with that of other models.
