[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A shady dentist will tell anyone they have a severe overbite or underbite. [/quote] ....and risk being charged with Medicaid fraud? Does it happen? Probably. Is it common? Probably not. [/quote] Because most DCUM posters are not going to these crappy dentists nor are we going to the crappy doctors that hand out prescriptions for painkillers like candy for a fee. I've seen both where I grew up.[/quote] I grew up in the a** end of Methville, Idaho and here's a thing that taught me - Medicaid requires an enormous amount of paperwork and justification for coverage. Fraud, particularly for something like this, is just not worth it for the provider or the patient. The cost margin isn't high enough for the provider, and the upside isn't high enough for the patient (no one is addicted to braces). [/quote]
