I did the math years ago but basically, they could run the mri machine 24/7 and only pay like $18 and some change for the energy consumed for the whole day. So it makes no sense why it costs so much to use.

True. It’s not all 100% the insurance. It’s actually the hospitals over charging because you have insurance

Exactly. The hospital billed my insurance 14000 for a CT scan but insurance paid 382 bucks.

The ACA tied insurance profits to premiums. To increase premium prices you need to increase healthcare costs. This is what it looks like when the government gets in bed with corporate America.

My wife and I had a baby at a hospital about 15 years ago and the invoice was around $12,000. When they found out we were going to pay for it out of our own pocket, they discounted the invoice down to around $5,800. We were shocked that the cash price was half.

The provider bills higher because of the games insurance company plays. The payment to provider is the same. Insurance company needs their cut
