Medicare is the most poorly run program in the history of the world. There is no relation between the cost of a service and what Medicare pays. It is because of Medicare and Medicaid that our health care system is so screwed up, since they now pay about half of all health care costs in this country.
I met a guy on a cruise in Australia a few years ago (he was Australian) that had made 10s of millions of dollars selling those motorized wheel carts to Medicare. He was buying them in China and Taiwan for about 800 dollars and selling them to Medicare for about 5000. He bought as many as he possibly could and made a fortune until our idiot government finally figured out they were paying too much.
Come to think of it, maybe I should do something similar so I can retire early.
