Greensboro’s Scott Fleming urges Moses Cone and Blue Cross Blue Shield to settle their differences:
While each tries to gain the upper hand in this high-stakes match, the fact remains that employers bear the ultimate burden of providing health care coverage to the vast majority of people. A single-payer system is looking a lot better to me, and if Moses Cone thinks dealing with Blue Cross/Blue Shield is cumbersome, I invite them to consider their bargaining power in the face of the federal government.
That would include the politicians who make up the federal government.
