[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1057093, member: 249"] No, not exactly. Higher numbered of insured patients means more people seeing the same number of doctors. A simple supply and demand evaluation will tell you that when the demand goes up, but supply remains the same the cost goes up to compensate. When the cost rises, the insurance rates have to rise accordingly to keep everything in balance, and raise they will much faster than they would have otherwise. The government has projected many things wrong over the years. When obamacare passed it was supposed to cut the deficit, but future review discovered that it won't and in fact will add to the deficit. Again, I still don't know how increasing the liability of insurance companies along with increasing the demand for healthcare services while restricting the available supply will help keep costs down at all.
