We need to get the consumer between the insurance companies and the medical providers. Right now the insurance company is between the consumer and the provider. It would solve so many issues

If auto insurance worked like our medical insurance we would pay $1200 for an oil change. The patient needs to be the paying consumer. Not the insurance provider
