Did you see 60 Minutes tonight? They are talking about billions in medicare fraud. No, missed that. But see above. Maybe you missed it. Somehow the Medicare fraud doesn't bother me as much after seeing that. After all, we're paying almost 10 times more to Aetna than to Medicare. So for every buck of mine going to a crook cheating Medicare, there's nearly a sawbuck of mine going to the crook cheating Aetna. Great system. Pretty equitable for the crooks percentage wise. Lucky I can afford it. Good luck to those who can't. They'll need it. --Vic I bet Aetna doesn't have near the fraud rate of medicare. They said the whole Florida medicare department only had 3 investigators and they called the process "pay and chase". They paid the claim, then they determined if it was valid. The crooks would start and close the fraudulent businesses faster than the investigators could look into the claims. My fishing partner is a retired investigaor for the Calif AG. He went after MediCal fraud. And they also found a lot of Federal Fraud. HE said the Feds rarely looked at the fraud the state uncovered. Sounds like it'd be a good investment. |
