This is described in a myriad of scifi books. The corp is then free to set it's own standards with maximized profit in mind. When they say "I want my country back" they mean bring back the rule of the slave owner. Keep the working people sick and poor, disallow abortions so there will be more of them to exploit, let them die early from lack of care and maximize profit for the few.
Joe Wilson's only bill he ever brought forth would bar emergency rooms from treating illegal aliens. Now that is pure anti christian, anti American and anti humanitarian fascism. Obama can learn a lot from him.
Oh one more thing:
Republican health care reform and illegal aliens
Oh and this:
un funded medicare overhaul
This costs 1.2 trillion but no one demonstrated, or had any problem with it, it uses tax $ for illegal aliens and lots more. It was passed because the Bush admin lied again. WTF?

Stink. They don't even have to buy smaller insurance companies to take over healthcare. All you need to do is to serve in the board of other companies and trading votes for concessions to your own company. In other words, vote fixing and creating a virtual monopoly while giving the appearance of "free market".
Look, healthcare is not a business. Never was, never will be. Every wealthy country in the world has universal healthcare instituted by their governments and every poor country wants to get it. Hell, even developing countries like Mexico and Brazil has it (and several others). It works wonders, it gives better quality of life than the USA and it costs half as much or less.
Because americans are, as a society, paranoid. Yes, PARANOID. The plan here is not to wipe out insurance companies (which would be the ideal solution), but to merely add a public option. It is, in every sense, already a watered down reform. And yet the nutjobs here call it "government takeover". It is crazy, it is paranoia. It defies logic reasoning. Another reason for this resistance to reform is because americans are largely ignorant of other countries and other cultures. If they were knowledgeable about the rest of the world they would see that other countries like european countries, Japan, etc, are not latent communists or inferior. They would be open to ideas such as universal healthcare.
