    This is an example of how the system can be gamed, not an anecdote. The point is that there is no limit to what patients and doctors will spend and justify if they are spending other people's money. Vendors try to sell me on services of marginal benefits that are "covered."https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1121030788772966400 …

    I love how @AAPSonline and @AlietaEck use a single anecdote and no other evidence to claim that "waste, fraud, and abuse are rampant in the current Medicare system," without showing with hard figures that waste, fraud, and abuse are in fact rampant in the current Medicare system. https://twitter.com/AAPSonline/status/1120841264184741888 …

        An example *IS* an anecdote. If your claim is that this happens often, you need data to back the claim. One example can be a norm or an exception. Also, about “spending other people’s money”, have you heard of Europe? Do you believe Americans are naturally much more dishonest?

        Wait; is there no limit to what patients and doctors will spend, or are death panels deciding to withhold essential care to stay within budget? @gorskon
