[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe we should stop paying for elective surgeries….[/quote] Sort of related, but I've noticed on all 4 sides of our family that elderly are being scammed into knee/hip replacements. I'm convinced it's to get money out of medicare. Our extended family members are in very poor health, get told they need a knee replacement (despite only having minor pain), know they won't do any sorts of physical therapy or exercise. Now my extended family members are either in medicaid nursing homes (even more money from taxpayers!) and/or wheelchairs full time. Does a 93 year old in poor health need a hip replacement? Her quality of life is so much worse now.[/quote]
