Kofman's paper presents three major conclusions:

* The elimination of state oversight will leave consumers vulnerable to

consumers to more fraud and unpaid medical bills; and,
* Widespread confusion over who has regulatory authority and which rules
apply would create an environment ripe for fraud and abuse.
