Yes, that is EXACTLY what I am saying. You are spouting off on a subject you know nothing about. So, in your delusional fantasy world, how does a physician get these "kickbacks" Does he meet Clarence Beeks from the movie "Trading Places" in a dark corner of a parking garage and get an envelope??? Does the pharmaceutical company provide a 1099 and report these kickbacks or just add income tax evasion to the list of charges? Very simply, the drug companies wouldn't want anything to do with the scenario you've suggested, nor would any physician. They couldn't pay enough to even consider it; they would lose money.
