The problem with fraud is many well-meaning docs get caught in the cross-fire of over-zealous fraud investigators.

Medicare takes the standing that every error is fraud. If it's in their favor, they'll wait and see if you catch it, if it's in your favor, you'd better report it ASAP or they attack you like a criminal.

Yes, they need to go after the people submitting false claims. Sometimes, its easier for them to take out little guys who make mistakes.

it's definitely unfortunate what these yahoos did in Florida.

However, unfortunate for us, I think this means extra red tape FOR ALL of us.
