Ever looked at the itemized bill from a hospital? Costs are grossly inflated.


Costs were inflated in 2014. The decrease in payment of the bill isn't related to the inflation in any significant way.

Trust me 808, I understand that my comment wasn't related to the OP. It was more along the lines of stating that no healthcare bill will ever really be successful as long as healthcare itself is a monopolized business and we're their test subjects. Once you toss in some lax FDA testing, kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies to DR's for pushing their shite, and some politician payoffs... you end up more or less where we are now.

Money has long been the bottom line of the healthcare industry not actual well being.
