No it doesn't. That's just what some politicians would like everyone to believe. You know what does, though? People going to the hospital for basic and emergency care who don't have insurance. Congress already mandated that hospitals care for patients regardless of coverage or none - they made their bed, now they need to lay in it! Do you know how much emergency surgery costs? People with insurance have overpaid to make up for the people without insurance. THAT is what drives costs up, not the few people suing doctors for doing things like amputating the wrong leg.
