More than a dozen nonprofit hospitals across the country were sued on Wednesday on charges that they violated their obligation as charities by overcharging people without insurance and then being overly aggressive in their attempts to collect money from the uninsured. The suit calls for the hospitals to create a trust to provide affordable medical care for the uninsured.

Meanwhile a new report from Families USA has found that 1/3 of Americans under the age of 65 did not have health insurance at some point during the past two years.
