Only in America do insurance executives, hospital executives and hospital administrators earn more than medical doctors!

So you believe that if insurance companies limited their CEO etc. salaries and benefits etc. to, say, $70,000/year, their bottom lines would start showing higher profits in the long term?

That's because those three have to deal with arrogant, full-of-themselves government liberals and try to make them happy.

A far more difficult job than merely working on normal people after going through 12+ years of intensive training, holding their lives in your hands, and trying to save them.

I think if the CEO salaries were limited to 70K/year, fewer companies would deny claims to enrich their personal pockets.

The Higher Health Insurers’ Claim Denial Rate, the Higher the CEO Pay

Exactly! Where would be the incentive for CEO's to make that denial feature paramount above all and employ even more cubicle denizens to facilitate it?
