If I'm not mistaken, HIPAA was enacted in part to remedy this, at least in part. It was supposed to standardize a lot of what goes on in health/insurance billing and administration. Supposidly it shoudl cut down on money. All of the provisions of HIPAA are just taking effect over the last year or so or in the near future, so I guess in maybe 10 years we'll be able to tell if it helped or not. I'm placing my bets on 'not.'
