Is "not perfect" strong enough criticism if people are being covered by services that do nothing? Today's article is saying that that large insurers might just be rejecting claims without reading them. Without the ACA, presumably money wouldn't be being spent on companies that literally just take the money for compliance reasons then don't provide a service.

This is one of the more annoying failure modes of socialised medicine; when things go wrong the consumer has no control over the waste because they aren't in control of the money being spent.

Absolutely pick a different phrase, but it'll still have applied before the ACA and it'll apply after except for people with preexisting conditions, eliminating lifetime caps, and maximum out of pocket limits.
