Extreme Fire Season Expected Across Mountain West
By Madelyn Beck,
All signs are pointing to an extreme fire season across the region this year. The Mountain West is facing a number of water shortages, according to Boise State University professor Moji Sadegh.
“We are down on river flows, we are down on dam storage, we are down on soil moisture. It’s hotter. Everything is converging,” Sadegh said.
Unfortunately, he says the hotter it is, the dryer it gets, and things can deteriorate quickly. In the last few weeks, our region has been drying up rapidly. Now, a whopping 84% of the West is in a drought.

Healthcare experts, such as Caitlin Sheetz, director and head of Analytics for ADVI, are still combing through everything in the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services Hospital Inpatient Prospective Payment System and Long Term Care Hospital proposed rule released last week.
There s much for hospitals to like, as the inpatient rule stabilizes reporting requirements to pre-COVID-19 levels and extends add-on payments for 14 technologies. Everybody for the most part is pleased, Sheetz said, though it s still too early to know what hospitals will be submitting as comments to CMS, due June 28.
One aspect that has gotten the attention of providers is CMS s repeal of the reporting mandate having to do with hospitals disclosing their privately-negotiated rates with insurers.
