Massachusetts has managed to game the system once again:

The loophole:

Hospitals in Massachusetts will reap an annual windfall of $275 million due to a loophole enshrined in the new health care law … The disclosure was buried in a regulation that Medicare issued Monday.

Reactions:

Hospital association executives in other states are up in arms over the news, which comes at a time when they are girding for more cuts under the newly signed federal debt deal.

Outcomes:

Hospitals in 41 states will lose money as result of the change. The biggest loser: New York, which is out $47.5 million.
