Let's assume that the insurance companies spend one third of their revenue on marketing and another third on turning down claims. That leaves a third.

I'm surprised that no one is proposing tort reform as a possible reducer of medical costs. Excessive litigation raises malpractice premiums and causes doctors to practice defensive medicine, by ordering extra tests. There will be some political horse-trading as Health Care legislation is shaped. That should create opportunity to throw tort reform into the mix.
