Of course doctors don’t like it. Insurance companies are the only entities willing to stand up to their cartel. They want to continue collecting monopoly rents without anyone saying boo.
- qgin 3y agoIn what way are doctors a monopoly?
- Centigonal 3y agoInsurance companies aren't their own even worse cartel?
- ars 3y agoNo, they are not. First their profits are capped by law, and second the entire reason these plans are so popular is because they are cheaper. And why are they cheaper? Because insurance companies are pushing back against doctors and hospitals. And since cheaper is a good thing, I don't think you can call them a "cartel", unless you mean a "cartel trying to lower prices".
