ICYMI: Slate's Tim Noah on Health Care Costs and Health Plan Profits
Posted by The Campaign on March 08, 2010 at 2:52 PM
While in general Tim Noah's recent article on Slate.com is off in many ways, he does have two very good points on health care costs and health plan profits.
Here they are:
On Health Care Costs: "Health insurers and other complain that the health reform bill does little to control doctor and hospital bills, especially in the private sector. That's true."
On Health Plan Profits: "Profit margins in the health insurance business aren't especially great. On Fortune magazine's list of the 53 most profitable industry sectors, health insurance ranks 35th."
