The lawsuits aren't what is doing it. The Doctors do not get to charge more because they got sued. The Insurance Companies tell the doctors what they will be paid.
And why and how, in 07, did every major medical insurance company almost post double profits?
These Companies stock pages say 4-6%, and we all know how you get your profits to drop. If you were going to make billions in profits and would be taxed and for sure slammed on it, wouldn't you do everything in your power to reduce it?
Oh.. I would say so.
