It's gonna take a whole lot more than just tort reform to bring down costs. (If it's even possible) The tort reform angle is to bring down outrageous...
But it is needed, just like all the other cost saving measures. Right now, a doctor can do nothing wrong. He follows all the established procedures and still...
If I'm not mistaken, Medicare/Medicaid denies more claims than private insurance. People always mention the fraud/waste in Medicare/Medicaid/private insurance,...
Medicaid will cover the care for the complications of DMD (ventilators, home care, etc.) when private insurance never will. Private insurance has no interest...
