zooser, No and No. Seems that this is another example of unnecessary tests so he can collect some insurance money. Ridiculous.

Two years ago my mom went to the hospital while visiting my sister. She went in because she felt miserable. Turns out she had a UTinfection, and she should have gone home after getting a prescription. But they kept her there for an extra 2-3 days conducting every possible test just because she has Medicare and because she’s elderly. They didn’t “discover” anything besides the UTI.
