This country is too gutless to cure the medical fraud problem.  I have a 
real simple plan to cure it.  Doctors loose their license, PERIOD.  And if 
you weren't born here, then you're deported.  End of discussion.

Well over half the big Medicare/Medicaid fraud cases prosecuted here in CA 
were either naturalized citizens or foreign nationals/greem cards.  Biggest 
welfare fraud case was a Russian immigrant with a green card and SEVENTEEN 
fake IDs!

Fining these people does no good.  AND, let me tell you, on average, the 
fraud unit at Medicare takes 5-10 years to *investigate* fraud cases. 
What's up with that?

Also, IF we had the medical billing system that the French have, then we 
could wipe out a lot of the patient fraud/waste.  Doctor shopping and 
multiple doctors to get multiple meds could be brought to a screeching halt.

The cures are simple.  People need to stop ditzing around and simply do what 
needs to be done.
