Medicare pay's bills when they are presented. You are correct! This is why their is so much fraud in Medicare and Medicare doesn't really check because they DONT FREAKING CARE. It's not THEIR money!Buffalo » 11 Dec 2024, 2:40 pm » wrote: ↑ You need to do some research and learn what you are talking about, ****!!!

The taxpayers are the ones getting harmed!!!
Officials have known for years that some Medicare Advantage plans overbill the government by exaggerating how sick their patients are or by charging Medicare for treating serious medical conditions they cannot prove their patients have. Health insurers that treat millions of seniors have overcharged Medicare by nearly $30 billion the past three years alone as of 2019. $10 BILLION a year will cause Medicare to go broke!!!
The insurance lobby, though, is powerful and owns many politicians. Efforts by the CMS to audit insurance programs like medicare advantage by the CMS have been met with strong opposition.
I paid into the Medicare system since 1968 and I like it. Hospitals cannot get by with overbilling, which they do on a regular basis. All minor and major medical bills I have had that Medicare only paid 80%, I can pay out the 20% monthly at less that private insurance premiums. Why do freeloaders like you have a problem with paying for your own ****?
Real Medicare pays bills when they’re presented. Medicare Advantage insurance companies, on the other hand, get a fixed dollar amount every year for each of the people enrolled in their programs, regardless of how much they spent on each customer.
It is getting worse by the year!!!

My brother is a medical doctor and he sees the scam!!!
Medicare loses billions of dollars each year due to fraud, errors, and abuse. Estimates place these losses at approximately $60 billion annually, though the exact figure is impossible to measure.
And here you claim that tax payers are getting ripped off by Advantage plans....Advantage plans cost $30 million in 3 years while Medicare loses $60-$75 BILION A YEAR! Which one is a better value to tax payers?
