I think under "administrative costs" they might have hidden consolidation of the providers market. Anecdote: I wen to podiatrist about 4 years ago and now. The same doctor the same place, everything is the same. Except 4 years ago it was ~ $200 per visit, now I am looking at ~$350. What's changed? His practice became part of the big group footandankle. Similar situation happens with other specialists and family doctors, hospital networks consolidate all they could find in vicinity under their roof. There's no promised administrative cost reduction. Everything goes up in price. But apparently it's a "faux pas" to criticize hospital networks because somehow it reflects may reflect bad on the doctors.
