Exactly. Anyone who says Government run health care would reduce fraud is either: willfully ignorant, hallucinating, a blatent liar, or ..... planning their own scam. At least insurance companies have a profit motive. A given individual might get raked over the coals about an authorization or claim, but the tradeoff is cost containment. And you can bet that the Agency that runs this will be stacked with Leftists and Acorn alumnuses. Fraud containment will be the LAST thing on their minds. Fraud will be winked at and paid for by cutting fees to honest doctors and denying necessary procedures for elderly citizens.
Yeah, sure.

But... but... I thought government run medicine was going to eliminate fraud and waste!!!/sarc
Anything the AP reports has to be questioned as well.
Show me the DATA!!! And its source!!!
Fraud, waste, and abuse is defined by bureaucrats, and their definitions change to fit their budget and policy goals. The old F.W.A. canard is greatly exaggerated. Just realize that there are elements of this in any such system, and you cannot name one that does not. They would have gullible readers overreact to these reports in order to generate enthusiasm and momentum for--and justify extreme measures to impose-- "reform."
Reducing inefficiencies should always be a worthy and constant goal in HC administration but this old hobgoblin is a deception. Trust me on this and don't fall for it.
That’s “only” $1,000 for each “uninsured American”, according to their B.S. inflated numbers.
Well when you get to vote buy with other peoples’ money (and have access to an unlimited amount more) you’re not going to be careful, respectful or mindful of it.
My husband was channel surfing tonight and was amazed by the number of channels that featured individuals who could not afford health insurance. If the government wants to talk about a scam, they should look no further than themselves because they are scamming us.
