Re: White House wants more power to set Medicare rates

Pardon me. I mistyped. That should have said "anything concerning healthcare ...yet." Obviously, they have determined they are the gods of welfare. With healthcare now in their sites, as well.

Re: White House wants more power to set Medicare rates

It seems that they have determined that healthcare is something that promotes general welfare. Really? I wasn't aware they have determined anything concerning welfare...yet. You'd have thought it would be in the news! What's your source? Let's see: United States v. Butler, 56 S. Ct. 312, 297 U.S. 1...

Re: White House wants more power to set Medicare rates

For anyone here to answer: Anyone had trouble getting 'good' equipment from their local (or 'in-network') DME? Keep this in mind if you bought your gear from CPAP.Com for the savings...
