This is the biggest cost of the insurance companies, they have to pay for all these tests to keep from being sued
Ask a doctor, I did
Tort reform would lower the insurance companies cost, but instead of limiting how much a lawyer can sue for, the president wants to limit how much the insurance companies can charge, does this make sense? Wait, Obama is a lawyer, most of his contributors are lawyers, why would they vote to limit how much they can sue for? It would be like them not voted for themselves to get a pay raise.

The insurance companies make them run every test they can??? thats a joke.
They run the tests like that so they can get paid a fraction of what they are asking for.
If you see a doctor and he says it was 100$ the insurance company says they will pay 12$. If he draws blood and sends to the lab and says it was 75% for that the ins company says they will pay 14$
ask any insurance biller.
