His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

The authors said 44 of California’s 58 counties had “highly concentrated” hospital markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem is worse in Northern California and the report said prices for medical procedures are often up to 30 percent higher there than in Southern California, which has more competition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Consumers are paying more for health care as a result of market consolidation. It is now time for regulators and legislators to take action,” according to the report by the Petris Center on Health Care Markets and Consumer Welfare at UC-Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the report was issued Monday, Becerra said his office would be reviewing those findings and pledged to apply more scrutiny to health care mergers and anti-competitive practices across the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutter Health has gobbled up doctor practices across the Bay Area, gaining market muscle that has pushed costs upward. Obstetricians employed by Sutter Health, for example, are reimbursed about three times more for the same service than independent doctors, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://khn.org/news/guess-who-pays-the-price-when-hospital-giants-hire-your-private-practitioner/\">KHN review of OB-GYN charges\u003c/a> on several insurers’ online cost estimators.

The plaintiffs have been requesting documents related to contracting practices, such as “gag clauses” that prevent patients from seeking negotiated rates and choosing a cheaper provider. They also are challenging “all-or-nothing” terms that require every facility in a health system to be included in insurance networks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November, the \u003ca href=\"https://californiahealthline.files.wordpress.com/2017/11/sutter-nov-13-order.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">state judge\u003c/a> handling the grocery workers’ case said Sutter was “grossly reckless” when it intentionally destroyed 192 boxes of documents that employers and labor unions were seeking in the lawsuit. San Francisco County Superior Court Judge Curtis E.A. Karnow said Sutter destroyed documents “knowing that the evidence was relevant to antitrust issues. … There is no good explanation for the specific and unusual destruction here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lead plaintiffs, the United Food and Commercial Workers and its Employers Benefit Trust, are a joint employer-union health plan that represents more than 60,000 employees, dependents and retirees. The court certified its case as a class action in August, allowing hundreds of other employers and self-funded health plans to potentially benefit from the litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to its 24 hospitals, Sutter’s nonprofit health system has 35 surgery centers, 32 urgent-care clinics and more than 5,000 physicians in its network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>California Healthline reporter Ana Ibarra and KHN senior correspondent Jenny Gold contributed reporting.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The plaintiffs have been requesting documents related to contracting practices, such as “gag clauses” that prevent patients from seeking negotiated rates and choosing a cheaper provider.

Federal authorities said that evades common sense and has the potential to endanger communities in California and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new federal case represents an escalation of the long-running battle between the Trump administration and California, whose Democratic governor, Jerry Brown, and attorney general, Xavier Becerra, have positioned themselves as ideological opponents to the White House on matters from immigration and climate change to criminal justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Echoing the tone and favored language of President Trump on Twitter, Gov. Brown issued a statement Tuesday night that called the federal lawsuit \"SAD!!!\" and a political stunt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, California lawmakers passed three immigration-related laws that feature prominently in the new lawsuit. One bars private employers from voluntarily cooperating with federal immigration officials and requires businesses to notify workers in advance of a federal raid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A second law restricts state and local law enforcement from voluntarily sharing information with the feds about the release dates of undocumented people in their custody. That law also bars the transfer of undocumented people into federal custody. The third law under federal challenge covers state inspections of detention facilities that hold noncitizens in federal custody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department is asking for a preliminary injunction to block those three laws. To advance their cause, federal lawyers cite a 2012 Supreme Court dispute, in which the Obama administration sued Arizona over its punitive law meant to crack down on immigrants there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A divided Supreme Court eventually ruled parts of the state law were \"pre-empted\" under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. In essence, the court's five-justice majority said that federal law trumps state law in the immigration area, lest each state develop its own policy toward immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a longtime proponent of immigration restrictions, will speak Wednesday at an annual Law Enforcement Legislative Day hosted by the California Peace Officers' Association in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Department of Justice and the Trump administration are going to fight these unjust, unfair and unconstitutional policies that have been imposed on you,\" Sessions will tell that group, according to an advance excerpt of his remarks. \"We are fighting to make your jobs safer and to help you reduce crime in America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra, a former Democratic representative, will speak to the same group later Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his statement, the state's governor took on Sessions. \"At a time of unprecedented political turmoil, Jeff Sessions has come to California to further divide and polarize America,\" Brown said. \"Jeff, these political stunts may be the norm in Washington, but they don't work here. SAD!!!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In D.C., senior Justice Department officials said California had acted in \"quite obviously novel ways\" and that the state laws there were \"glaring and in some respects go beyond what we've seen\" elsewhere. Those officials said the Justice Department is in the process of reviewing other state immigration laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Justice Department is also locked in courtroom battles with California and other jurisdictions over its threats to withhold federal law enforcement grant money from sanctuary cities, which refuse to voluntarily share information with immigration agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

Brown issued a statement Tuesday night that called the federal lawsuit \"SAD!!!\" and a political stunt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, California lawmakers passed three immigration-related laws that feature prominently in the new lawsuit. One bars private employers from voluntarily cooperating with federal immigration officials and requires businesses to notify workers in advance of a federal raid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A second law restricts state and local law enforcement from voluntarily sharing information with the feds about the release dates of undocumented people in their custody. That law also bars the transfer of undocumented people into federal custody. The third law under federal challenge covers state inspections of detention facilities that hold noncitizens in federal custody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department is asking for a preliminary injunction to block those three laws. To advance their cause, federal lawyers cite a 2012 Supreme Court dispute, in which the Obama administration sued Arizona over its punitive law meant to crack down on immigrants there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A divided Supreme Court eventually ruled parts of the state law were \"pre-empted\" under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. In essence, the court's five-justice majority said that federal law trumps state law in the immigration area, lest each state develop its own policy toward immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a longtime proponent of immigration restrictions, will speak Wednesday at an annual Law Enforcement Legislative Day hosted by the California Peace Officers' Association in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Department of Justice and the Trump administration are going to fight these unjust, unfair and unconstitutional policies that have been imposed on you,\" Sessions will tell that group, according to an advance excerpt of his remarks. \"We are fighting to make your jobs safer and to help you reduce crime in America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra, a former Democratic representative, will speak to the same group later Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his statement, the state's governor took on Sessions. \"At a time of unprecedented political turmoil, Jeff Sessions has come to California to further divide and polarize America,\" Brown said. \"Jeff, these political stunts may be the norm in Washington, but they don't work here. SAD!!!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In D.C., senior Justice Department officials said California had acted in \"quite obviously novel ways\" and that the state laws there were \"glaring and in some respects go beyond what we've seen\" elsewhere. Those officials said the Justice Department is in the process of reviewing other state immigration laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Justice Department is also locked in courtroom battles with California and other jurisdictions over its threats to withhold federal law enforcement grant money from sanctuary cities, which refuse to voluntarily share information with immigration agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

It grew from an outcry over a series of fatal police shootings in 2015 and 2016, and repeated calls from advocates and then-Mayor Ed Lee's request for a court enforceable \"pattern-or-practice\" investigation of the Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that legally binding probe was \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/02/01/feds-launching-comprehensive-review-of-s-f-police-department/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">passed over\u003c/a> in favor of the relatively new collaborative reform program, through which the COPS office made nonbinding recommendations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over a years-long evolution of SFPD's federal oversight, San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi repeatedly called for the state attorney general's office to undertake its own \"pattern-or-practice\" investigation, which is authorized by state law. Becerra's announcement Monday again falls short of that goal, however.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Under the terms and conditions of this [memorandum of understanding], the Cal DOJ is not exercising its authority under California Civil Code, section 52.3, subdivision (b),\" \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press_releases/DOJ%20MOU1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the agreement\u003c/a> executed Monday says. \"Cal DOJ agrees that this MOU is a collaborative effort and is not a pattern or practice investigation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the state is taking over assessing San Francisco's progress on the federal government's nonbinding reforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In September, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that the COPS office would \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/09/19/justice-department-ends-oversight-of-s-f-police-department-city-pledges-to-continue-reforms/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">no longer provide resources or guidance\u003c/a>. It also advised San Francisco that it would no longer review the proposed reforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Unfortunately, when the U.S. Department of Justice concluded the work, they were in the process of writing the first assessment report that never got released and won’t be released,\" Police Chief William Scott said Monday. \"It’s one thing for us to report what we’re doing. It’s another thing for somebody totally independent to come in and assess what we’re doing and report to the public.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott said the department has made significant progress on more than half of the recommendations. SFPD has fully implemented body cameras and completely rewritten rules governing officer use of force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, Scott said, overall uses of force were down 18 percent in 2017, and citizen complaints of officer misconduct dropped by 9 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFPD has also started automatic audits of all electronic communications, such as emails and text messages, between officers on city-issued devices. That change speaks directly to a major scandal involving about a dozen officers who swapped racist, sexist and homophobic \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/tag/sfpd-text-messaging-scandal/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">text messages\u003c/a> that were unearthed in 2015 through a federal criminal investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But much work remains, Scott said, noting that fewer than half of the recommendations on officer accountability have been carried out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think we’ll be here all day if I list out everything that still needs to be done,\" Scott said. \"We know we have a lot of work to do, but the point we’re trying to make here is that -- the attorney general has made it, the mayor has made it, both supervisors have made it and I’ve made it. We’re committed to doing this work and we won’t stop until it’s done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among issues that have yet to be addressed is an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/02/24/s-f-das-effort-to-take-lead-in-police-shooting-cases-stalls-as-officers-union-seeks-negotiation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">initiative\u003c/a> that would have the San Francisco District Attorney's Office take over officer-involved shooting investigations. The district attorney has created and staffed a specialized unit for that purpose, but the final signoff has been stalled for over a year in negotiations with the police officers union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the federal Collaborative Reform effort came with a cost-free team of attorneys and law enforcement consultants, San Francisco is now going to have to pay to get graded. The agreement with the California Department of Justice says the Police Department will hire a consultant who will report both to the state and SFPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Attorney General's Office declined to say when its first assessment of the Police Department would be completed. An SFPD official estimated it could come as soon as April.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Becerra's announcement Monday again falls short of that goal, however.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Under the terms and conditions of this [memorandum of understanding], the Cal DOJ is not exercising its authority under California Civil Code, section 52.3, subdivision (b),\" \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press_releases/DOJ%20MOU1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the agreement\u003c/a> executed Monday says. \"Cal DOJ agrees that this MOU is a collaborative effort and is not a pattern or practice investigation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the state is taking over assessing San Francisco's progress on the federal government's nonbinding reforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In September, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that the COPS office would \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/09/19/justice-department-ends-oversight-of-s-f-police-department-city-pledges-to-continue-reforms/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">no longer provide resources or guidance\u003c/a>. It also advised San Francisco that it would no longer review the proposed reforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Unfortunately, when the U.S. Department of Justice concluded the work, they were in the process of writing the first assessment report that never got released and won’t be released,\" Police Chief William Scott said Monday. \"It’s one thing for us to report what we’re doing. It’s another thing for somebody totally independent to come in and assess what we’re doing and report to the public.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott said the department has made significant progress on more than half of the recommendations. SFPD has fully implemented body cameras and completely rewritten rules governing officer use of force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, Scott said, overall uses of force were down 18 percent in 2017, and citizen complaints of officer misconduct dropped by 9 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFPD has also started automatic audits of all electronic communications, such as emails and text messages, between officers on city-issued devices. That change speaks directly to a major scandal involving about a dozen officers who swapped racist, sexist and homophobic \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/tag/sfpd-text-messaging-scandal/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">text messages\u003c/a> that were unearthed in 2015 through a federal criminal investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But much work remains, Scott said, noting that fewer than half of the recommendations on officer accountability have been carried out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think we’ll be here all day if I list out everything that still needs to be done,\" Scott said. \"We know we have a lot of work to do, but the point we’re trying to make here is that -- the attorney general has made it, the mayor has made it, both supervisors have made it and I’ve made it. We’re committed to doing this work and we won’t stop until it’s done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among issues that have yet to be addressed is an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/02/24/s-f-das-effort-to-take-lead-in-police-shooting-cases-stalls-as-officers-union-seeks-negotiation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">initiative\u003c/a> that would have the San Francisco District Attorney's Office take over officer-involved shooting investigations. The district attorney has created and staffed a specialized unit for that purpose, but the final signoff has been stalled for over a year in negotiations with the police officers union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the federal Collaborative Reform effort came with a cost-free team of attorneys and law enforcement consultants, San Francisco is now going to have to pay to get graded. The agreement with the California Department of Justice says the Police Department will hire a consultant who will report both to the state and SFPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Attorney General's Office declined to say when its first assessment of the Police Department would be completed. An SFPD official estimated it could come as soon as April.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
