BIR is 8.5% of provider spending, once you add the multiple cells up that constitute providers.
I don't think your argument is going to survive contact with the numbers here.

I just don't believe that it's correct. The Kraken hides here: Hospital Expenditures - 31.2%
I have a bit of personal experience here. I had a partner working as an endocrinologist, one of the higher-compensated medical professions. They were spending at least 1 _hour_ every day on calls with the insurance companies for prior authorization instead of seeing patients.
Some things are also weirdly broken down:
> Net Cost of Health Insurance Expenditures - 6.2% > Administration and Net Cost of Health Insurance - 7.4%
Why are they split?
I also suspect that they included some admin personnel cost in the physician/nurse salary. For my partner, their office employed a person just to deal with insurance. There is no easy way to break down these costs for small practices.
