>> Most of us can see the benefit for all of the people.....

There is ZERO benefit if you 30 years old. In fact, it is a sunk cost.

>> if they lost all their Medicare patients they'd be selling apples...

Once again, you're clueless. In most specialties, Medicare payments do not even cover the variable costs of providing the services.

You're really not qualified to discuss this. You have no comprehension of how payments are determined, what it takes to cover service or malpractice costs, or even what the overhead costs of running a medical practice are. So, how about we move on.
