The OTHER 500,000 are through CONTRACTS WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES to administer claims and cut checks for the Government. THEY have nothing to do with the delivery of medical care either. And the REASON costs have increased and the admin side has tripled is BECAUSE of the VOLUME OF REGULATIONS that obammycare placed on MEDICAL CARE PROVIDERS- ie, electronic records requirements, CODING requirements, etc.
So please, learn something BEFORE you open your clap trap and dig a deeper hole.
