>>who buys 300 dollar hammers ? the CEO making 12 million a year or the gov guy making 200k a year ?>> You use a lot of hammers in health care-lol? That is not how health care is administered. I have written and reviewed a zillion budgets for health care programs. And remember, the Insurance companies CEO's job it to make a profit. My job was just to do a good job!! Here is a typical budget: Personnel: $40,000 to $150,000. Rent: Travel: Equipment: And all we would do is review the claims and direct the payments to the doctors and hospitals. What do the insurance companies bring to the table, except trying to squeeze out sick patients to make more money. YOu have no idea what you are talking about.
