US healthcare is a market but not for patients. Insurance, employers and hospitals negotiate a lot. But people who get employer based insurance just have to accept what they are given. Pretty crazy.
- naveen99 2y agoDon’t most large employers essentially self insure? They only outsource the administration to insurance companies, not the float.
