  Health care providers inflate costs to compensate for caring for the uninsured. Providers do not have unlimited pockets to secretly finance the health care provided to millions of uninsured (and underinsured) patients. Hospitals and physicians anticipate the fact that the uninsured will seek care each year. They prepare for this reality by setting prices for the insured that are higher than expected costs.
