It may not have to be bad but it is absolutely an unnecessary siphon of funds out of the healthcare system. Simply put every single ass in a seat at an insurance company is $N not being spent on providing actual healthcare.
- jrockway 4y agoSome administrators are going to be necessary to run any sort of healthcare system. Just as an example, someone has to prepare and send each doctor a W-2 every year.
- forgetfreeman 4y agoOk so are we now pretending hospital administration staff doesn't already exist? Or that the simple majority of employees in Dr's offices aren't there solely to process insurance claims? So again, for the cheap seats, insurance companies: 100% overhead, 0% healthcare provided.
- jrockway 4y agoGood point. Not sure what I was thinking when I wrote that. No insurance adjusters around, nobody needs to issue them paychecks.
