[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s mostly moneycare. Many physicians put emphasis on elevated LDL to give you statins. With statins comes T2D. With T2D you are fully dependent on prescriptions, and docs. You may hear docs recommending you to cut legs and other unnecessary interventions.

Yup, go read the articles on United Health.  UNH controls 90,000 clinicians.  They tied things like physician compensation  to how many codes they drop onto a patient, because the more codes for conditions that are assigned to a patient, the more UNH can bill Medicare for gargantuan amounts of money.  In one scheme, UNH forced their physicians to use what is arguably a garbage device to "diagnose" peripheral artery disease.   Of course the device magically starts diagnosing huge numbers of people with PAD.  For every person diagnosed with PAD, UNH was basically able to bill taxpayers $3500.  Tons of people who would have never been diagnosed and managed for PAD were diagnosed with it using UNH's garbage device. They made billions of dollars using this strategy.  [/quote]
