Garrett writes from the Association of Health Care Journalists meeting in Chicago:
Average health care costs for Texans with insurance are higher in two midsized markets -- Lubbock and Tyler -- than in the big urban centers, according to Houston actuary Tim Lee.
In Lubbock and Tyler, there are two dominant hospital systems "that can leverage higher fees" from insurance companies, said Lee, principal and consulting actuary with Milliman Inc., a large national actuarial firm. He spoke at a panel at an Association of Health Care Journalists meeting in Chicago.
