For one thing, because 100% coverage for medically-necessary care doesn't mean that everything that the provider would like to get paid for is medically necessary, and insurance companies are very enthusiastic (to say the least) about pursuing and denying and even clawing-back-payments-after-the-fact for unnecessary charges, even when they are only on the hook for some portion less than 100%; with 100% coverage, they are 100% motivated.
