Right now there is a profit motive in denying care. If an insurance company’s profits depend on the amount of premiums coming in being more than care given, what do you think that gives them an incentive to do?

We already see this in cases of recission, refusing to pay for procedures, etc. Those screaming about “death panels” need to face up to the fact that we already have them in our current system, they’re just run by people whose primary interest is in making a buck.
