“Karen Ignagni, president of America’s Health Insurance Plans, said the White House’s focus on insurance rates instead of the underlying prices of doctors, hospitals and drug manufacturers is akin to saying that “we can only look at what the price of the car is at the dealer’s lot,” without considering the price of steel and other materials.”

If the insurance companies have no control over the prices of medical care what do they do to justify the money they make?
