>>> I have first hand experience with medicare...what experience do you have?

All you've seen are the EOBs that come to patients. You don't know shit about Medicare. Less than shit.

You don't have any idea that Medicare denied, unjustifiably, TWICE as many claims as private insurance does. You never saw that and the extra efficiency burden it causes. Or the fact that once those claims were denied it was almost impossible to get them reconsidered and it WAS impossible to get them reconsidered by an impartial arbiter.

You don't have any idea just how low Medicare's payments were for the services compared with what non-governmental agencies pay -- so low, in fact, that it drives up the price of private insurance and hampers patient care.

You don't know shit.
