Yes, so says a Foxnews blog. But when you go to the official quotes from actual real representatives of the hospital they don't mention Obamacare even once. If you to the article I linked to the hospital administrator makes it very clear that with 2 doctors leaving and a very low volume of patients, it didn't make sense to go to the expense of recruiting new doctors.
Seems to be a lot of posters who believe blogs to be factual news around here.
WINDBER, Pa. (AP) — A southwestern Pennsylvania hospital will stop delivering babies after March 31 because its obstetricians are either leaving or refocusing their practices, and because hospital officials believe they can't afford it based on projected reimbursements under looming federal health care reforms.
The Windber Medical Center, about 60 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, is losing two obstetricians and two others are shifting their focus more to gynecology.
Hospital officials say the population of women of child-bearing age is dropping and that the number of births the hospital would be called upon to perform isn't enough for it to provide the service in the face of lower reimbursements under the federal Affordable Care Act.
The hospital delivered about 200 babies each year since restarting its obstetrics program in 2005.
Officials aren't sure how many jobs will be lost.
Aren't you the same guy who claims your health insurance premium went up 82% this year because of Obamacare when most others only went up 4% the lowest increase in the past six years?

They all claim that their premiums went up. My rates went down by $1.22 recently
Not a big Fox fan, but I don't consider your internet opinion any more credible, furthermore any anti gun nut like you is never to be trusted...
I believe you.

I'll also say, I don't trust anyone who thinks Obama Care is good or will be the least bit good for the Country either. Just ask your neighbor, or the lady at McD's. They'll be glad to tell you how they are getting screwed. It's not hard to find, if they don't have their heads in the sand.

Seems a lot of posters believe the lies that come out of Obama's mouth to be factual too. You are one of em and a gun grabber too so you can't be trusted either.
Why do they need one? They run the hospital and have made a business decision that they believe is best for the hospital. Why does that require a source?
This would be like you and your spouse deciding what is best for your family. You don't need a source to show what's best. You do your own homework and come to your own conclusions just like the hospital administrators did. Just as it's up to you to decide how to run your family, it's up to them do decide how to run the hospital.

Wow. Mine went up $200/month.
I'll trade you.
