Private insurance companies that participate in Medicare under the Medicare Advantage program and its predecessors have cost the publicly funded program for the elderly and disabled an extra $282.6 billion since 1985, most of it over the past eight years. In 2012 alone, private insurers were overpaid $34.1 billion. That's wasted money that should have been spent on improving patient care, shoring up Medicare's trust fund or reducing the federal deficit, researchers say.
