....you just don't like being called on your BS. OC has gotten more expensive and keeps requiring tweaks here there everywhere and the rcie will rise incrementally under the radar or with huge swings like this one buried item, and like the good little boiler room drone you are, you'll squirm with endless palaver, bury yourself is barely comprehensible detail, till you are once again, boxed in.
Cue the incoherent sputtering. I assumed that was where you'd end up after running out of bullshit.
The CMS Actuaries' estimates for national health spending in the year 2020 are now $275 billion below their pre-reform estimates. Put on your thinking hat, I know how those kinds of "barely comprehensible details" confuse you.
I also question the costs part. Competition lowers the cost of products unless there is collusion in the pricing which may be the case here, as also may be government regulations among other things.
If it is simply competition the prices are lower than they would be if we only had one insurer for us all: a lot lower.
Prices of the services insurers are reimbursing for or the premiums insurers charge their enrollees?
