The insurance industry has pushed back against the outrage. “The people in our industry are mission-driven professionals working to make coverage and care as affordable as possible and to help people navigate the complex medical system,” said Michael Tuffin, the president of AHIP, a major trade group, on LinkedIn.

I am curious if Tuffin would support a single-payer system to make the US medical system less complex. Perhaps the savings from all that wasteful insurance company spend could be used to help bring down the cost of providing medicine.
