What I predict will happen from this is that parts of the medical care industry will start to divest itself from dealing with Medicare and Medicaid patients, and won't take that money.
It's already happened, on a smaller scale. There's a reason that a bunch of doctors don't take medicare/medicade, because the reimbursement rates are too low to actually cover procedures and the paperwork is too much. I do hope this just accelerates the move in that direction.
