Third parties are the real problem for relatively healthy people who are only getting routine preventative care. Yes. But they will save your life if you really get a major illness and can't afford the very expensive treatments on your own.

Those special situations are what insurance companies are actually good at and were originally for, distributing the cost of prohibitively expensive procedures/meds. They should not be skimming off the top of the day to day relationship between the doctor and patient.
