Yeah, they do. Insurance companies work with organizations like Covidian and the Feds. to set reimbursement schedules. Insurance companies vary greatly in how much they will pay for a procedure. If the reimbursement to a facility for an ACDF procedure is set at 2500.00,some companies may pay 80%, some may pay 60%. The insurance companies holds the system hostage on many fronts.

Again, you are over generalizing the process of what goes into healthcare costs. You are ignoring an entire mass of additional factors going into what is ultimately charged a patient. I would contend (and I would be accurate) that under your described scenario, no other factors in healthcare "reimbursement" changed, that eliminating insurance all together; the ACDF procedure would be several times more expensive for the patient than it is now.
That's not what I meant when I said competitive. Meaning somewhere along the way employers started competing with each other for employees and healthcare became the number one competitive benefit.
And no automobile insurance can't be bought across state lines. It is bought by the state you garage you vehicle. So therefore if you live in wv you can't buy an Ohio or Oregon automobile policy. Insurance is a state regulated business through the state department of insurance. If you want to take increases or decreases it is based on your zip code and must be filed and approved by the state doi. Property and casualty insurance has absolutely nothing to do with federal government or any federal regulations.
Benefits where you work are now handouts. I'd rather they just hand me the money and I'll just do what the smart poor people do for healthcare. Pay nothing, go to the doctor, throw the bill in the garbage.
You just can't invent this kind of stupidity. I now believe yours is true and genuine.
Employers weren't forced into offering insurance originally. They gave it as part of a benefit package. This idea is foreign to a stingy old white bastard, small fry business owner like you, because you've never even considered giving your employees anything. Employers being forced to provide health insurance is a Socialist program.
Moron, the healthcare industry itself is patterned in socialism. as the healthy subsidize the sick. No different than the wealthy subsidizing the poor. Socialism mandated or not is still socialism. Moron. If employers simply being forced to provide health insurance is a socialist program, then so is employers being forced to pay minimum wage, as is paying overtime, as is many other things.
The healthy subsidize the sick???
Doctors, wow what a sucker's game that would be. Don't make any money until you're old. Now you're forced to take care of bums bringing in their fat kids with a headache from playing video games all day while they ate a whole 12 pack stick of Kit Kats from Wal Mart for $1.96 (EBT paid, of course).
I would discourage it. We should just program robots to do it all anyway. Equations for the amount of medicine. Equations allowing for the movement of the robotic hands to whatever coordinates are necessary.
People talk about the cure for cancer being withheld. What's really being withheld is making all work robotic while we figure out how the hell we're going to achieve any status after we're rendered useless.

Companies ahould by law have to offer insurance. You earn it with across the board low wages. Insurance is someting i always had because i always worked. Didnt think about it much. Now if they had to take some out if my check that was okay because it never was too much. Now i have medicare-Baptist health but am in a network of doctors. From 78 to 85 mapco provided us with 100 per cent insurance. Dentist and eyes were covered. They did that preaching as long as the union was not allowed in they would cover us. They lied in the end
