> The large majority of the money isn't going to the insurance company, it's going to healthcare providers. I have upvoted you but on HN, the prevailing belief is that doctors are gods and insurance companies are evil. The data clearly shows that, on the average, insurance companies lose money while hospitals charge a 10000% markup - that's right, a 10000% markup. I have written extensively on this topic (see my Quora) but I am finding it incredibly challenging getting people to see the reality. Because I am often a contrarian here I am no alien to the downvote silence system here on HN - it's likely you can't respond to this comment of mine because HN won't let you for a few hours. My email is in my profile, would love to connect with you - a person aware of reality. Thank you
