Who's the "bad guy" here? highly paid insurance executives? appointed Insurance Commissioner? thousands of paper-pushers?
All of these are sitting between me and my doctor. None of them dispense medical advice, perform procedures, or write prescriptions. If my taxes and premiums weren't being redirected into supporting this "overhead", I could simply pay the doctor directly.
Catastrophic coverage is another issue, obviously, but one which could be greatly simplified if there weren't so much "overhead".
