I have caught several billing errors in the past. It isn't uncommon at all. If you think that regular insurance is bad, try Medicare. There's rampant fraud going on there. Part of my dad's "restorative therapy" is walking up and down the road each day. He does this by himself. Medicaid and Medicare are billed thousands a month for it. It blows me away. So if his insurance won't pay for it anymore, will he not be allowed to walk anymore??? Pediatrist charged 300.00 to trim his toenails. He isn't diabetic or anything. He77, I've been trimming them myself and there are still bills associated with this service. It's just stupid. His phamacy bill is thousands per month. He takes about seven different meds, including asperine. Nothing experimental, no drug trials. Stuff that he could get a Walmart for five bucks a month per script.
And the population is aging. We can't keep this up.
