Physicians lose money on every Medicare patient they see.

I don't buy that. My doctor gets just the same reimbursement for me now as she did before I was on Medicare. Only now she has to wait until Medicare pays first, then my Blue Cross makes up the difference. Before it was only one step. But the money is the same.
