1. Ridiculous malpractice suits leading to higher cost of operation for doctors and hospitals in the form of malpractice insurance. 2. Large portion of non-paying customers (many illegal aliens) visiting hospital emergency rooms and receiving treatment. Hospitals have to pass that cost on to recoup losses. 3. The HMO and PPO systems have higher overhead due to being a middle-man between doctors and patients.
