alt Hacker NewsShow me the more recent NHE table where this effect shows up and I'll be ready to have the conversation, but right now this seems like a dodge. Whatever effect you're describing, if it's material, has to have started after the NHE data I just posted, from 2023. I don't remember thinking that the health system in 2022 was good.
Fun thing about the NHE: you can project it as far back as you want. The data is there.

What? Insurers have been playing this game far further back than 2023.
If an insurer doubles the time a doc has to fight over denials and has to hire extra billing staff to assist, where do you imagine that cost shows up?
