So, I've never run my own company - but I have always been suspicious of this.

I was working as a consultant for small firms I have a salary of X - my billable rate was ~3X.

The company had shitty insurance of which I was paying a large % of my check each month to cover my end.

I absolutely refuse to believe it "costs" a small consulting company several hundred thousand dollars per year to employ a person making 100K per year.
