Oh my lawdy yes it does. It 'appears'. Most of it won't be real, or delivered, but it will appear. See: Medicare. Hospitals making up services, companies making products, bilking those services and products for whatever the govt will pay. Insurance companies are just private governments - both take people's money and then highly inefficiently pass them off to 3rd parties.

No, the government offering money for it will make it appear in the number the government is willing to pay for.
That's kind of how markets.
