Oh, believe me, I hold no brief for insurance companies. Doctors and hospitals at least have a beneficial function, when operating correctly. Insurance companies *used* to be about making catastrophic medical care affordable to people who might not be able to afford otherwise by collecting the next best thing to protection money and then paying out if you really needed it. Now they seem to have switched over to collecting money all the time and *not* paying it out if you really need it.
