You go into a hospital and say 'my insurance is paying for this'. You get costs that are 2-10x what they should be plus whatever other procedure they can think of that seems legit.
Actually, this is backwards. In almost all cases I've seen, the insurance company has a "negociated rate" which is much lower than what I would pay on my own. Looking at my bills I see, for example, that the insurance company has negociated a rate several hundred dollars less than what I'd pay for a blood test. Scan your EOBs and look for contract adjustments to see what I mean. It pretty crazy when you think about it since it means those least likely to afford the care (folks who are w/o employer provided insurance) will pay the highest rates.
For the record, what can Flash do that HTML5 + JavaScript cannot, other than 1. efficient vector animation and 2. camera and mic access?
I work in e-learning, an industry which relies heavily on Flash. We keep looking at HTML 5 to replace our Flash content but there are still several areas where it falls short. The biggest for us today is the lack of a robust audio events framework in Javascript. We rely heavily on photos cued up in a narrated slideshow, other events may be linked as well. AFAICT, there's no easy way to ensure that when audio track hits point x, fire Javascript event y. Same goes for video. Most other things are reasonably well covered by modern browser HTML5 implementations, but many of our clients use lagging spec hardware (training computers rarely get high end updates, instead they're often the final resting place for machines unable to any serve other business purposes). I'd love to abandon Flash for more open HTML standards, but in my industry that means some significant tradeoffs today. In the mean time, Adobe appears to be experimenting with making Flash output HTML5 anyway (see Adobe Edge). Long term I think Flash player fades away as HTML5 becomes an output option from the Adobe suite.
