But love grows old and waxes cold: #HealthPolicyValentines 2020

A healthy Valentine's Day to all! As the rule of law in the U.S. erodes, and the Trump administration comes up with ever new ways to reduce enrollment, services, and affordability in public insurance programs, I can't forbear but to add some, shall we say, antivalentines to this year's mix. They follow the sweeter kind.

Cold wax, not to be confused with waxing cold



Health wonks are sweet,
their rhyming is cute.
Poetic meter
is not their strong suit.

On hold with the hospital
in some endless billing tiff?
Put down the receiver
and dial @sarahkliff.
