Reply #56: Baloney back. There are plenty of people who open up a supposed medical facility and bill Medicare

[Hoyt]

for services when they never saw a patient. There is no reason for that to go on wasting billions of dollars.

Then, there are duplicate tests that wouldn't be necessary if physicians and other providers were tied together closer. That is part of health care reform. Preventive medicine is not utilized sufficiently under Medicare. There is little emphasis on quality of care.

So, say "baloney" if you want, but you ought to wait and see what's proposed.
