Health insurers and providers negotiate payments for healthcare. They sit on the opposite side of the table - insurers want the lowest price and providers want the highest price.
The only benefit an insurer would have from a higher price is if they have a monopoly position - no other insurer. Otherwise the other insurers will pay less, charge a lower premium and grab all the customers.
