I did hear most of that interview on NPR. I agree, fascinating stuff. IIRC, the doctors themselves were surprised that all their extras were not showing results (although they admit that some was to reduce liability concerns).

I hope we can learn from this info. I don't understand why insurance cos are not all over this - are they not really interested in cost reductions, do they feel they can just pass the costs on to the consumer? Doesn't make sense to me, they could sell more ins if it was cheaper.

So many people label the ins cos as "greedy" - then why aren't they working to get more for less? Doesn't add up for me.
