      Competition among middlemen has nothing to do w competition among actual providers, in fact the former possibly stifles the latterhttps://twitter.com/iyad_elbaghdadi/status/845393609482551301 …

      Republicans want a competitive healthcare market so prices come down (US healthcare costs way, way too high relative to other countries)

      Prices are most competitive when there's just 1 middleman that acts as a single buyer (monopsony), that's the great strength of single payer

      The great flaw of US healthcare is w multiple plans, companies, "networks", the uninsured who receive ER care, the prices now make no sense

      The "sticker price" of one procedure might be $10,000 in one place and $1,500 at another

          The price on the bill has only a loose relationship w the cost to the hospital, it's been juggled to play w diff insurers' rules

          They don't expect any individual to pay that price, they've priced in the assumption that anyone uninsured is prolly broke

          The sticker prices literally are shots in the air. Insurance companies negotiate down to a set of agreed costs.

          a person is on insurance, you are covered under those agreed upon costs. Some areas are better able to do costs than others.
