Cool and fine, but ware is the fraud ? People have the right to be treated for what ever by whom ever. Medicare should not be used to pay for it. Medicare fraud was implied, and is yet to be proven. As for any psychiatric or medical association, what they put out as opinion needs to be taken with a grain of salt, as there opinions are typically for sale, or changed year after year depending on what the current fad is at the time.
I hate to be picky but I am sure you meant to say Medicaid, not Medicare. Medicare is a federal insurance program for those over 65. Medicaid is the United States health program for people and families with low incomes and resources. It is a means-tested program that is jointly funded by the state and federal governments, and is managed by the states
Medicare pays for disabled folks on social security disability at any age.
And there are millions on it.
You have to have a lawyer help you draw up the paperwork to get on it if you're under whatever the age is. It isn't easy to get SS disability.
