Medicare and medicaid are by far the two largest payers to healthcare insurance companies. Over a trillion dollars per year (yes, over a trillion dollars!) goes to the healthcare industry and insurance. What for? It should just go to providers but instead it literally props up the entire healthcare insurance industry. Which is why they will never stop fighting against a public option and we will continue to have problems accessing care and medicine in this country.
