It’s not that simple.

Insurers compete on the employer market for premiums. If you keep jacking up your premiums, you may find an employer dumps you.

And the pool of money is finite. Getting a better deal on a drug means you have more money to spend on other care that might get you more members.

That said, I agree the 80/20 ACA law is a stupid way to try and control costs.
