American Hospital Association: Hospitals Can Pay Patients' Health Insurance Premiums
HealthLeaders 
Nov. 18, 2013
"The federal government has no legal authority to prohibit hospitals from paying their patients' insurance exchange premiums to encourage their enrollment, despite a [CMS] statement implying that it does, according to a sharply worded legal advisory from the American Hospital Association [AHA]. What's more, there is clearly no prohibition against hospital-affiliated charitable foundations, or unrelated charities, paying these premiums on behalf of patients, the AHA said ... The financial assistance may be especially helpful to those would-be enrollees whose federal subsidies aren't enough to make coverage affordable."
