I have been unable to gte out of Network Dr at all threw medicaid.  Dr 's

not even complete forms because they do not get paid enough to do it.  getting

specialty medicine in medicaid is a nightmare and mostly impossible.

Medicare and Medicaid are probably paying cost that are closer to what should be

charged. Health care here is so outragesously high that people are going out of

the country, anywhere but here. Person got surgery in England and whole thing

including air fare and hotel and surgery about 1/10th what he would have paid

here. He had no insurance. I wouldn't be surprised if private insurers are

probably paying more so as to drive Medicare and Medicaid out of the business.

Costs are way out of line.
