In 2010 Medicare spent 7 billion on administrative costs out of total expenditures of 523 billion.
you know I'll need a link for that.
No... he's talking about "for Profit" doctors and hospitals OVERCHARGING Medicare for Services.
Here is where your contention begins to fail. Medicare sets a specific rate for each service. End of part one.
If anything, the doctors and hospitals ought to be audited with a fine tooth comb and retrieve our taxpayer money back.
Second part of post failure. Hospitals (both private and non-profit), doctors, LTC, OP Rehab, etc, DO get audited, but the DOJ<snip>
What I find truly pathetic is a 69 year old woman who had private health insurance until she turned the magic age of 65 and was FORCED onto Medicare rolls. She cannot find a Primary Health care doc to take her as a patient, even her P-doc who has been her P-Doc for 15 years. If she needs to see a Doc, guess where she goes?
ER! How frickin fiscally responsible is that?
Wow... let's not blame the doctors for not accepting Medicare though, right? Always one sided with you people, isn't it?

Medicare does not pay one claim.. These companies do under contract!
So the "administration figure" of 3% is misleading!
Some of these companies are losing money administering Medicare and make up for it through their commercial businesses!
MOst of you don't deal with Medicare as I do on a daily basis!
I am sure if those of you "pretending" to know about Medicare had as much contact,resources and knowledge as I have you then would comprehend the
magnitude of the MYTHS!
See I would respect many of your respective expertise in your field of work.. but some of you don't seem to understand I work daily with Medicare and Medicare providers and most of you don't!
So if one of you being a PHP programmer pointed out something you knew from your expertise.. I'd respect your comments..
So why are you novices with Medicare making comments much less doing ANY research? That's ignorance!
