HMO's don't count for that. HMO's are just anticompetitive groups that are around because of the government.
Due to Nixon and his attempts to get universal healthcare.
45% doesn't count that....
if your wondering around 28% of the country is currently covered under government programs.
The government spends between 45% and 56.1% of healthcare costs to cover 28% of the people... and they're the ones who are going to make things cheaper... somehow.
Not to mention that there is overlap and some of that 28% get private healthcare as well.

Well that should be obvious. The 28% they're covering are the old, disabled, and poor, who would naturally rack up the most health-care costs

That's a good point. Regardless... government healthcare just doesn't work outside of small countries... because it always leads to rationing... that ends up robbing people who are paying for treatment of treatment.
