Actually, providers who do not accept Medicare can charge 15% more than “Medicare Assignment” and most of them do. (This is for Part B, or outpatient or non-admission charges)

I understand everyone’s sentiments here, but do not act like there is an easy answer, for the providers.

This is bankruptcy of health care service providers, or damnation of their souls.

Those are the choices, if this stands.

Getting away from government money is like withdrawing from heroin. Very unpleasant in the short term, but much better for your long term health.

Someone else asked, are there any Muslim hospitals in the US. Well right now, I believe not. But importantly, they refuse to compromise their standards, and this is a good lesson for Catholic hospitals as well.

You can either take money from the government, or you can do things your way. You can’t have both.
