Insurance Companies are becoming the "Tom" guy from the movie Office Space
And they're now getting called before the Bobs who can't see that they add any value.

Just watch this clip and see the similarities:

"What would you say... you do here?"

"Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn (patients) so the (doctors) don't have to. I have (financial) skills; I am good at dealing with (money). Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?"

1. They ARE Tom, except Tom didn't keep a big chunk of the specs as the price of doing business.

2. The insurance companies need to be moved to the storage room
where they can sit and wonder why they haven't received their "paycheck".

They may, however, keep their red staplers (and their "denied" stamps).

3. I know just the storage room for them
You see it right at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Let them await the arrival of top men.

(And don't poke any holes in their boxes, either)

4. Hopefully in my lifetime they will be selling "Jump to Conclusions" Mats
Kinda like that pet rock guy.
