Re: RE: Analgesic Healthcare (Correction)

[Guest guest]

My text was messed up in my previous post.

It should have read:

,

They send you out a bunch of TENS and stim. Units. They have you prescribe

them and they bill insurance for each unit or a monthly rental.

These sell for about $50 in catalogs and

these companies bill $600 for them. If you want to do that, buy some

yourself and sell them for $600. Just be sure to do it with cash patients

too and then go inside and see how it feels.
