Unfortunately you are probably right. Medicine, hospital stays, DME, Pharmacies, are after all businesses. They may soak Medicare for as much as they can get. I have a Bipap and am constantly hocked with offers to resupply hoses, masks etc because Medicare will pay. TV commercials often have the same message: Medicare will pay.
