This isn't a response to anything I just said. I really don't understand why people collapse into all this handwaving when people point out the obvious: the money in our system is going to providers, and, in particular, it's going to practitioners.
The insurers are buying the practices so they can eat at both sides of the trough.
(And the independent practicioners are having to use a significant portion of the money they take in to… fight the insurers!)
