Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that health insurance only covered major medical expenses meant that doctors had an incentive to provide more procedures to their patients, as they would be reimbursed for these expenses. This, in turn, may have led to an increase in medical costs and the use of expensive medical equipment and facilities.
