True, but that still leaves the problem of each insurance company defining their own contracts, networks, payer policies, authorizations, etc. that tie member and provider hands, increase costs, and just make everything very complicated. Authorizations create an entire middleman industry on its own.It was only in the 70s that medical insurance companies were permitted by the government to be for-profit industries. Before that, they had to be non-profit companies. We could roll back to that, too.
