I don't know that that's a BAD plan - When Janet was working for a Managed Care company (she's a psychologist), the company was making "obscene" profits. I don't think the insurance companies are hurting even now. They simply apply the clever strategy of reducing the payments they will give to members of the medical profession for a particular service so that they can maintain their profit margin. Hospitals and clinics then, are forced to charge "enormous" fees to people who DON'T have insurance to cover their losses.

Do we need health care reform? It's clear to me that we do.
