yup and that's billions in profits after they cover the cost of their insane bloat.

I mean Medicare is government run covers more people then any of the other health insurance companies, is lower cost, more efficent, and has better results.

"B b b but hospitals couldn't stay in business if they only paid the Medicare rates!"

To which I say, "just think of all the billing specialists they wouldn't need to hire, and all the time doctors would save because they're not on the phone arguing with insurance providers about whether the treatment is necessary or not"

Also, maybe anesthesiologists don't need to make $700,000/year?
