"recent report by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS) found that health spending grew 5.7 percent, reaching $2.5 trillion in 2009 "

So $2.5 Trillion spent = $12.2 billion profit = 0.50 % profit
Here's the problem with "facts".. That $2.5 Trillion spent is ALL health spending (as you've posted earlier) and not that just done by the insurers.
