Anything that moves us beyond the gross waste and incompetence of insurance and medical billing is a good thing.
My wife and I had a few recent medical issues crop up and, despite having decent coverage, have had to deal with chasing down providers and third parties who consistently fail to bill even the most basic procedures properly.
I'd much rather pay more in taxes to have the knowledge we'd be safely covered without dealing with the headache of endless middlemen who add no value to the system.
