There are several intriguing threads in that article, and it will be interesting to see what this all actually turns out to be.
What the article doesn't mention, but may be part of this as a political calculation is that there are some markets where Doctors and Providers have opted out of government payer participation at a rate that is causing insurer/governments to offer "incentive" $$$ to get folks to opt back in.
Apparently it worries The Powers That [currently] Be when they dictate a plan and Doctors won't participate.
