The problem with buying insurance across state lines is the states themselves. Any insurance company dealing with the citizens of a state has to abide with the insurance regulations of that state. By the time these insurance companies comply with the state’s insurance regulations, they just about operate just like the other insurance companies working in that state. There is very little difference and, after the cost of the regulations is passed on to the rate payers, there is little that can be done to lower costs in my humble opinion.

All true, and your posts speaks to a greater problem we have in the healthcare insurance and healthcare provider industry - it is overrun with "middlemen."

Health Care Has a Middleman Problem

There are literally millions of people who get paychecks in the healthcare industry who do nothing in providing direct healthcare to the injured, the sick, the diseased, or the dying.

They are the middlemen - and they have expanded exponentially in the last 40 years.

The idea of middlemen involved in the insurance system is an important one. I see apparatus of government as a middleman. I am sure the insurance industry sees government as a monkey on their back.
