Whatever The Market Will Bear, Or Won't

The government has released information that shows hospitals charging Medicare wildly different amounts for the same procedures. And those numbers tend to be way, way more than Medicare will typically reimburse. They think that the upshot of all of this is that people with little or no insurance will end up paying more than they should, but I think that it doesn't matter whether you have insurance or not, because somehow, they're going to make you pay. They'll say that certain things aren't covered, and they won't back down. I have experience with this. It could be a nightmare. (New York Times)
