[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 395122, member: 2189"] Oh it's even worse than this. My mom whose in her late 70's a couple of years back had an aliment that was appropiate for a Chiroprator to treat. More specifically, he used cold lasers which in some cases have some benefical uses and this was a good case. The problem was by law, my mom could not use this doctor because he was not setup to handle medicare and even though she was capable and willing to pay for treatment out of pocket, the doctor by law once he knew she was covered by medicare was by law prohibited to only accept medicare payment for her treatment. In other words, he could only treat her if medicare covered and medicare doesn't cover that kinda of medical treatment. The prohibition and burden is on the doctor, not the patient and had he treated her and got caught, he would have had his license pulled. They got ya coming and going and thanks again to the monopolistic nature of gov't, the medical profession has a monopoly so where is the competitive economy to keep costs in check? There is none but we want to further monopolize a system that created the very problem to begin with? Not me brother! Thanks to my wife's law office and some time in the law books, I did learn that nothing barred my mom from recieving a birthday present from a friend who is a chiropractor who wants to show my mom just how cold lasers work. This chiropractor came to my mom's birthday party (5 months early :wink2:) and gave her a demonstration. Oddly enough she had some aliment that somehow disappeared after that party. WOW! Imagine that! :happy-very: I on the otherhand did something different at my next visit to the Chiropractor as I gave him a tip, outside and not listed on insurance claims of course! I don't know what prompted such genrosity on my part either. More than one way to skin Uncle Sa... I mean skin a cat! :happy-very: God loves rebels and outlaws! BTW: Paid and AV, I'm against all forms of licensing too! Lawyers, doctors, contractors, etc. even car license. Oh I'm sure that one will stir the pot! :happy-very::happy-very::happy-very: [/QUOTE]
