I fear this post's argument incorrectly assumes that the cap on insurance provides as 20% percent of revenue is the limiting factor on insurance company profits. In fact, it mentions cases where insurance company profits are below the cap! Their interest is not obviously to grow healthcare spending. So I'm not sure to what extent they truly endeavor to deny care so as to increase profit in the long run, and not just smooth a turbulent market.
