WASHINGTON — Socialist Democrats reportedly renewed their push for Medicare for All this week after learning federal investigators had exposed massive Medicare fraud schemes and concluding the obvious solution was to make the program even larger, sources have confirmed.
According to completely reliable insiders, the movement gained momentum after several activists realized that while a few fraudsters can be caught, a nationwide paperwork hurricane might finally overwhelm every auditor in America.
“Think bigger,” one imaginary campaign strategist reportedly said.
“If fraud is the problem, scale is the answer.”
Supporters allegedly described the plan as a bold new vision for healthcare in which every citizen receives universal coverage, every agency receives 900 million forms, and every suspicious billing code is buried beneath a mountain of equity language.
Critics asked whether expanding a system already vulnerable to fraud might create new problems.
The room reportedly laughed for nine straight minutes.
“That’s old thinking,” one organizer explained.
“You’re focused on stopping fraud. We’re focused on making fraud inclusive.”
Policy aides later unveiled sample claims for beachside telehealth, emotional support saunas, and emergency avocado toast recovery therapy.
Economists warned the plan could become expensive, but supporters insisted the government could simply print more money, raise taxes, blame billionaires, and call the whole thing compassion.
As of press time, campaign volunteers had reportedly filed reimbursement claims for three imaginary surgeries, two canceled podcasts, and one taxpayer-funded seminar titled Auditing Is Violence.
A fraudulent health device supplier once rented my insurance company a CPAP machine
for me for $48,000. The machine could have been bought outright for $883 !
When I reported the fraud, the company investigated ME ! They had no mechanism
to actually investigate the defrauding company perpetrator, just the innocent victim !
Sound familiar ?
I finally convinced them that I, and them were the victim’s not the perps, and they
investigated the supplier. They settled on a deal where the supplier would lower the
charge from $48,000 to $16,000 for the $883 machine, and all where happy !
All were happy ? Are you kidding me ? The fraudster’s still made almost 20 times what the machine was worth and the system was happy with that result ?
Make no mistake about it, this communism push from those who have hijacked the
Democrat Party is going to end just like this CPAP story. It’s nothing more then a fraudulent
scam to get their hands in the taxpayers pockets and overcharge them for every good and service they need. This Medicare for all fraud push is just the beginning !
So true, Medicare is hardly “free” paying co-pays and supplemental insurance amounts to THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS out of my pocket!
When the smart capitalist billionaires get fed up and move their wealth offshore, the socialists will have lost their piggy bank for all their progressive schemes.
America will then become a Third World country dependent on other nation’s prosperity. The socialists will have then achieved their objective,
I used to work in healthcare administration. Every year we had to take a Medicare “fraud, waste and abuse” training. The bottom line was that if you saw something you should say something. In other words, no penalty if you kept your mouth shut. Don’t bother reporting anything.
Medicare isn’t free for seniors, who pay monthly taken out of our social security checks for 80% coverage, then pay monthly to Medigap supplemenatl insurance companies to cover the other 20% coverage along with the monthly fee for Part D drug Rx coverage whether you take medication or not, plus the actual cost of Rx if you take those. Some insurance companies even changed the Tier Rx level to charge higher prices since Trump lowered the actual cost. Then of course there is the yearly deductible that goes up every year before Medicare even kicks in. if you’re admitted to a hospital and don’t have Medigap or some other plan with high deductibles, the cost is almost $1800 out of pocket plus the 20% of bill Medicare won’t cover.
Not sure how these idiots think it’s free now. Now only free for low income and the disabled and that is being abused as well. Cost my husband and I around $5500 a year to be on Medicare with social security our only income and savings.
Well said and absolutely accurate, from my experience!
Medicare is legalized fraud. Many plans bait consumers with “co-pays” which turn out to be fake. A zero co-pay easily turns into $40.00. Being scheduled for a simple medical test in a facility that turns out to be run by a hospital which bills $150 rather than zero dollars as previously experienced. We no longer have a viable health care system. Is this a population reduction process enabled by our government?
We already have MEDICARE for all You have to work and pay into it. When you retire, you use it but STILL pay into it. It’s the working and paying into it that the dems despise. They want more and more parasites s they can never lose power.
