http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?idT19901n&tag=contentMain;contentBody On "60 Minutes" Andy Rooney mentioned how a doctor he didn't know had stopped in his room for a few minutes while he was hospitalized to ask how he was and tell him how much he liked his show. Rooney subsequently discovered the doctor had added a $250 charge to his bill. From what I've seen, this is commonplace. As he mentioned, the way things are now, doctors, hospitals, and everyone else in the "industry" milks the health care system all they can. It's not just a question of Medicare fraud.[ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
