Re:Using AI to negotiate a $195k hospital bill down to $33k by BobbyTables2 on Tuesday October 28, 2025 @07:53PM (#45740901)
Insurance companies are required to spend something like 80% of premiums on claims.

This sounds like a really good thing, almost everything coming in has to go back out…

What it really means is they love high “allowed” prices. They live on the 20% and want to see the pie as large as possible.

Healthcare costs go up? They raise premiums — win-win.

The road to hell is only paved with good intentions.
