New York City--A Sanctuary for Illegals' Obamacare.,,

The dire ObamaCare threat to New York’s hospitals

City Comptroller Scott Stringer laid out the grim facts last week on how the most progressive law in decades means disaster for New York City

The bottom line of Stringer’s report: Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, aka ObamaCare, Uncle Sam will cut more than $800 million in payments to the city’s Health and Hospitals Corp, by Fiscal Year 2019.

The president’s signature law slashes federal payments that long helped out hospitals serving lots of patients who lack insurance. The idea was that the law would boost coverage so dramatically the aid would be unnecessary.

Except that illegal immigrants don’t qualify for ObamaCare coverage — and they make up a big chunk of the city’s uninsured population.

Mind you, it was Democratic leaders trying to ease worries of Democratic members of Congress, who opted to deny that coverage. And none worried about how hard it would hit America’s cities.

This is hardly the only huge problem with the health law. What with President Obama’s decisions to ignore or waive its clear language, laws passed by Congress and signed bv Obama to amend it and Supreme Court rulings that rewrote it, ObamaCare’s been tweaked nearly 50 times, by the Galen Institute’s count.
