Yes, but that would require lower costs (prices). That we could get if pricing were more transparent. I believe that will require moving back to high-deductible 80/20 style insurance.

I think its the opposite. If you made people pay for it, they wouldnt consume it, and demand would drop, and prices follow.

You cant have your cake and eat it too. If you want prices to go down you have to say there are things you wont do anymore.
