Curious if this is a big deal or not?? .... We moved to a different county in Florida, thus we had to find new Drs..... My DW is 70 years old, went to the doctor for a check-up and blood work. (She is a retired nurse) After looking looking over the order for lab work, she noticed that there was a diagnosis checked stating Chronica Kidney Disease, .... Since she questioned the Dr. at her visit, the Dr told her, its normal, that it does not matter even though she has never had any abnormal lab tests. As well, she scheduled her for her next visit for one year. The lab order for next now has Chronic Kidney Disesase Stage 2. She told her this normal practice ....... I think Medicare get paid more $$$ per diagnosis.....? Is this not medicare fraud, or do others at this age see this same diagnosis for no reason ??
