Health Insurance Premiums Could Drop
July 18, 2008 – 11:15 amIt’s not that hard to figure out that doctors HAVE to be charging fixed fees for their services. It’s a given because they have to provide those rates to the big insurance companies. Part of the problem with the health care system and the huge deficit we face is doctors bleeding consumers to make up for the low fees given to big insurance carriers.
Honestly, doctor and hospital charges are fictitious numbers unless you don’t have health insurance, or are not a major carrier with the good discounts. In some markets they are 5 times more than what they accept from a major insurance company. FIVE times!!!!!!
This prevents all health insurance companies from competing and makes your premiums much higher than they have to be. If everyone paid the same amount for health care services, health insurance premiums would drop dramatically.
