Here is a new one for you. While Medicare increases their premiums, they also deduct care for seniors.

If you go to an opthmologist, Medicare will not pay for him to examine your eyes but will pay for him to write a prescription for new lenses needed.

How can the doctor write a new prescription for your eyes if he doesnot examine you first? When you figure that one out, please let me know.
