Same. Having worked in hospice care for a brief stint years ago, the whole offer/counteroffer back and forth between providers and insurance companies seemed to suggest that a certain amount of fraud was casually accepted. The other disturbing fact was that doctors had customized rubber stamps for their signatures which interns would use when sorting through piles of "consumer" documents, all later to be quickly initialed in chicken scratch by the doctors. The doctors wouldn't even look at the paperwork, just thumb through it and make the pen touch paper, eyes elsewhere.

I suppose, as with most anything else, even MMA, over time the process becomes second nature.
