There is fraud in just about every 3rd payer situation. Car insurance, unemployment insurance, homeowner insurance, taxes, home improvement scams, etc.
If some institution is giving money to someone for something, there will be someone who will abuse the system. Can't just blame the health care industry.
Lots of complaints on here about doctors/hospitals and unnecessary tests, bad diagnoses, etc. Everyone expects health care to be PERFECT, they expect ALL doctors to be the same in terms of intelligence, medical knowledge, diagnostic capability, etc. Guess what? Nothing is perfect. But ....look at the life statistics and we're doing much better than 100 yrs or even 50 yrs ago. Most of us older guys (60+) would be dead by now if we lived in the early 1900's.

My brother is a Hospital Risk Manager and its sickening the stories I hear of people who won't take care of themselves (obese, diabetics on poor diets), won't listen to doctors advice and when they die, the family sues the health care provider. It's the health care LOTTO.
So, before everyone throws the entire health care industry under the bus, check your medicine cabinet and the meds you're on that are probably helping you stay alive.

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
