When I heard this piece on All Things Considered yesterday I wondered if it might be part of it http://www.npr.org/templat... - Amyloo

Nope. This was good -- three stories about health care costs from the perspectives of patients, docs and insurance companies, but it was not the Giant Pool of Money-type explainer we'd been waiting for. That comes next week. Ira said at the end of the show that next week is an hour-long report on health insurance companies from the NPR Planet Money people. - Amyloo
