On the main site today, I have a piece up about how the rampant fraud in Medicare and Medicaid undermines the Democrats’ argument that we need a new government-run health program to increase efficiency. This Sunday, “60 Minutes” will tackle the issue, according to the CBS site:
MEDICARE/MEDICAID FRAUD – Medicare and Medicaid fraudsters are cheating U.S. taxpayers out of an estimated $90 billion a year using a billing scam that is surprisingly easy to execute. Steve Kroft investigates. Ira Rosen and Joel Bach are the producers.
