So true. Medicare has to power to audit any doctor’s medicare billings.

That is why so few doctors are willing to say anything because they know Medicare can send in a bunch of auditors to make their lives miserable.

Now I understand why so many doctors don't accept Medicare / Medicaid.

What if you tell the doctor you and your 70 year old wife are not on Medicare?
